Remembering our daughters on Birthmothers day. We were promised to be a part of their lives,and the adoptive parents lied and traumatized their brother. WE love you Ashley and Mina Cloutier and we never forget
www.faintstarlite.com We get a lot of questions so we decided to share our foster adoption journey and provide basic information for families interested in learning more about adopting through foster care. Keep in mind, each state has its own rules so the info I share is specific to adopting in Wisconsin... although there is a lot of cross-over in most states. Where are we currently at in the process? As of this video's posting date we're just finalizing our home study and will be eligible for placement next month. Thanks to Johnson & Johnson's Health Channel for sponsoring this video series! I met the director of their channel at a conference awhile back and I ended up telling him about our adoption plans. I reached out to him after deciding to make a series of videos + posts on the topic and J&J said they'd be happy to sponsor it. Check 'em out at: www.youtube.com If you're looking for more resources on American adoption or about foster care, a great resource is AdoptUsKids.org - they have photolistings, adoption stories, and details about contacting your state's adoption resource center.
******UPDATE - SEPTEMBER 14, 2010****** St. Mary's has informed us that we have been matched with birth parents. The baby is due at the end of October. Thanks for all of your support since we started this. It has meant the world to us. We will share further details after placement. Thanks again, Matt and Diane ******************************************* Dear Birth Parent, We are Matt and Diane and we are looking to adopt our first child through open adoption. If you are looking for an adoption plan, we hope this 4 minute video gives you a brief view of who we are. Please watch and if you feel a connection and want to learn more about us, you can reach us in a couple of different places: If you would like to contact us directly first, please send an e-mail to mattdiane@att.net On Facebook - search for our group "Help Matt and Diane Adopt." www.facebook.com On St. Mary's Services website, our profile can be seen here: www.stmaryservices.com If you would like to meet us, please contact St. Mary's Services at 1-888-STMARYS (786-2797) and ask to speak with our counselor, Christina Buck.

We were given the assignment of a persuasive speech. Since I am a birthmother, I chose to do mine on open adoption. This is the class presentation, which needs more practice to be smoother, but I wanted to post what I had.
The CodePlex Foundation's Paula Hunter moderated a panel discussion at the Open Source For Business Conference (OSBC) at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco, CA on March 17, 2010. Panelists are Jeff Hammond, Principal Partner, Forrester, Sam Ramji, VP Sonoa and BoD CodePlex Foundation, Damien Eastwood, Former VP of Legal for Sun, and Tim Yeaton, President and CEO of Black Duck Software. The business case for multi-source development, including the use of open source software, has never been clearer than it is today. Enterprise developers are building applications with open source whether the company's c-level executives know it or not. How can corporations get "on the grid" when it comes to open source at all levels of the enterprise: legal, executive, and IT? We know using open source makes sense. But how can corporations also contribute back? This video includes the Five Stages of Open Source Adoption as explained by Forrester's Jeff Hammond.

Many children available for international adoption have had experiences that will help shape their personalities. Using role playing and thought-provoking exercises, this course helps adoptive parents reconstruct and understand - the first year of their adopted childs life with eyes wide open. The With Eyes Wide Open Course will help adoptive parents: Imagine their child's life during the first year, such as the sounds, foods, rituals and their relationship with caregiver. Research and prepare for the challenges they and their adopted child will face as they transition to home and beyond. Think about and plan for how they will parent their adopted child. For more information, see: adoptionlearningpartners.org

For adoptive parents, knowing when and how to talk to a child about adoption can be hard. You may be afraid that you'll say the wrong thing or scare your child — but it's important for your child to know that he or she is adopted. By talking openly

Lifetime Adoption Center: Open Adoption today provides women a positive choice for an unplanned pregnancy. It also provides struggling parents or grandparents a way to stay involved in their child's life yet place them in a stable, safe family - important if losing them to the foster system is imminent. Open Adoption lets women choose the family for the child, lets them maintain ongoing contact both before and after the adoption, provide medical and cultural background information, and fosters a strong and balanced relationship for the child. Pregnant women and others are able to receive confidential and compassionate help 24 hours a day from Lifetime Adoption Center. They are also able to design a custom adoption plan that suits them and their child. Open adoption is a decision to be proud of!
For my baby girl born Oct 1st, 2009. I made this movie for her so she would know a little bit more about me and whyI gave her up. We have an open adoption so I get pics and letters but I still miss her dearly. I love you Peanut.
Adoption in Canada - Ontario adoptive parents. Many of whom desire an open adoption. If you are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy in Canada read full adoption profiles and find Canadian adoptive parents for your baby at www.adoptionconnections.ca
Crisis Pregnancy Outreach is a non-profit, faith-based organization (with headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma) that helps women in crisis pregnancy situations through support groups and counseling services. The organization also educates potential adoptive couples about choosing open adoption and establishing a healthy relationship with birthmothers. Over the last quarter of a century the non-profit has helped thousands of individuals in the open adoption triad. I highly recommend CPO for both birthmothers and adoptive couples alike. For more information, visit www.crisispregnancyoutreach.org.
