Teacher Debbie Moon’s first graders were discussing a picture of a
family.
One little boy in the picture had a different color hair than the other
family members. One child suggested that he was adopted and a little girl
named Jocelynn Jay said, “I know all about adoptions because I was adopted.”
“What
does it mean to be adopted?” asked another child.
“It means,” said
Jocelynn, “that you grew in your mommy’s heart instead of her tummy.”
