Not soon enough

My heart breaks tonight. Even in the best of circumstances, adoption doesn't always happen soon enough. I read somewhere several months ago only 20 percent of the children who need families actually make it into a family. Terrible odds. With all that we have in this world, it is tempting to think thing surely must be better now. And for many of the world's children, perhaps conditions in orphanages and foster care is better than it used to be. Even that isn't enough. Why do American parents adopt internationally when children need homes here?
