The Choice of My Heart All of us want to belong to a happy, loving family. Some of us are born into such a family; others are chosen to be a part of one. Why I Chose You celebrates the latter, families that have been made complete by adopting children. Best-selling author Gregory E. Lang highlights the many reasons why adopted children are uniquely special to their families as he focuses on the hugs and kisses, witnessing "firsts" together, and recognizing the contributions of each family member. Adoptive families are formed through various circumstances. Some who want to be parents are unable to have children of their own. Others find so much fulfillment in their roles as parents that they want to nurture and love even more children than they already have. In either case, adopted children receive the love and affection they need in order to flourish. This is the wonder of adoption. Families today are more diverse than ever. That is particularly true of adoptive families. In Why I Chose You Gregory E. Lang features adoptive families of various sizes and backgrounds. Together he and co-photographer Janet Lankford-Moran artfully capture them in the special moments that reflect the importance of family ties.Lang, Gregory E. is the author of 'Why I Chose You: 100 Reasons Why Adopting You Made Us a Family' with ISBN 9781581824339 and ISBN 1581824335.
