Adoption is Awesome!





It's official!!
Kyle Christopher Duerr
Born 8/27/14
Adopted 4/28/17



   My sweet "baby" cousin Diane (yes, she will always be my baby cousin no matter how old we are) has been a foster mommy to this amazing little guy since he was just an infant. My cousin fell in love with him right from the start and just knew this precious child was going to be her son. He had a rough start in life and has special medical needs that will continue throughout his lifetime.  Kyle has been surrounded by so much love, support, and family since first being placed with Diane and is now a happy little boy and has come such a long way.    After a lengthy process, Kyle is now legally her son and all of us are thrilled for both him and her!  Congratulations to both mommy Diane and son Kyle!
