Why You Should Consider Adopting an Older Child

When most people think about adoption, they often picture bringing home a tiny baby. However, there are many wonderful reasons to consider adopting an older child, particularly those over the age of three. Embarking on your adoption journey opens doors to profound experiences, and considering older children as potential additions to your family can further enrich this journey.
