I am a sucker for birth and adoption announcements. Adorable kids, happy parents – what`s not to love? There are many examples of creative birth announcements, but far fewer for announcing the arrival or impending arrival of a child by adoption. Creating a Family to the rescue!
We put out the call to our online community to send in their adoption announcements. We also have a Pinterest Board completed devoted to adoption announcement. We have 80 ideas for announcing the adoption of a child through domestic, foster, and international adoption or announcing the planning to adopt. Check them out. They make me smile!
Post your adoption announcement in the comments to this blog and on the Pinterest Board, or send us a copy and we’ll pin it or post it on this blog. (info at creatingafamily.org).

I prefer the straightforward ones eg “We welcome Jane and John into our family”. I thought a lot of the pinterest ones were a bit tacky.
I do get a bit tired of those adopting quoting Matthew 18.5. For starters, one better make sure every part ofone’s adoption is totally above board otherwise one might be guilty of Matthew 18.6.
