This last week I had to the privilege to be a part of the Camp of Champions- a camp held every year for foster children and foster families. I have gone to this camp growing up, being that my dad works for the Alabama Baptist Children's Home, but this year was different, mostly because my heart has been broken for these children.
Of course I kept the toddlers :) and had the opportunity to love on them while their foster parents attended seminars to educate them on their children and adoption. I have never been around children who are starving for love and attention like these children. I would have 3 and 4 children in my lap at all times and i wouldn't have wanted any other way. Here are some incredible pictures my sister Stefanie took from the week.
Savannah and Tate were so happy to be reunited. For those of you who don't know we adopted Savannah when she was 2 and we had Tate as a foster child right when he was born weighing 2 pounds. They didn't leave each others side the entire week.
Kelsie,
