That’s how many we will take this week as a family in order to travel. 1 to get into Lisbon, 1 as a backup in case the first one doesn’t come back in time, and 1 to get into Switzerland and then 1 to get back into the US.

Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system.
