In the shadows of the forest...
When the springtime comes again...
You can see the little violets...
Peak their heads above the leafy carpet...
That clothes the forest floor.
They're so glad for warmer weather...
For the promise of pleasant days!
They lift their heads with joy and smile...
At anyone who looks their way!
But who will see their sweetness in the busyness of life?
Who has time to visit the forest...
Or stoop to look for tiny folks that hide among the leaves?
They're beautiful oh yes...
But they're often over looked...
For the bigger brighter flowers catch the eye much quicker...
They live in pretty gardens where they are tended carefully...
Plenty of water and sunshine...
And fertilizer too...
Makes them blossom large and beautiful!
People admire their beauty as the pass along the way...
But who will see the little ones in the forest hideaway?
Those pretty little violets are just waiting to be seen...
Won't you plant them in your garden so their beauty can be seen?
Despite their tiny size and the hidden place they live...
They have exquisite beauty if you'll only take a look!
But why do I write of flowers?
As if they're so important?
True they are beautiful and lovely...
But there's something much more special...
Something valuable that's lost...
That is hidden in the shadows and forgotten by the world...
I speak of precious children that the world has overlooked!
While they value the lovely children in their family garden home (and that is right of course!)...
And provide their every need...
Admire their cute expressions...
And beam with pride at their accomplishments...
Their are other precious children who are not so blessed as they...
Who've been locked inside a system that has insufficient time and money to give the love and care they need...
Where love is scarce...
And food is scant...
And they're struggling to grow!
Oh please come walk the forest with me and see these precious gems...
The precious forgotten violets...
With beauty of their own...
Oh please do take a look!
First is Violetta...
Whose name inspired this post!
Can't you see her sweet sweet beauty...
As she lifts her head to smile at you?
Such a precious little flower...
But so often overlooked!
Won't you plant her in your family so she can grow and thrive?
She is such a precious flower child...
Your garden's misssing out!
She could be your own sweet daughter...
If you'll choose to bring her home!
*****
Another waiting flower is Miss Jeanne...
She's waited six long years for a garden (home) of her own!
Though her vision is somewhat impaired...
Her heart is full of beauty that is waiting to be seen!
Your family garden (home) is missing someone extra special - is that someone Jeanne?
*****
And oh the next three flower kids...
Are truly planted in the dark!
They must spend their days in bed...
And 'most never see the smiling sun...
Their days are very dreary...
Most lonely that's for sure!
They haven't even the basic pleasure of being clean and dry :(
They need a pleasant garden at last...
Where they can receive love and care and have a chance to bloom!
Are roommates in a laying down room and spend the vast majority of their time in bed!
They remain wet in their own waste for hours...
They truly need to be rescued...
Set free from their miserable "garden"...
They are waiting for a chance to blossom and shine!
Please consider adding one (or more) of them to your family garden (home)!

These sweet children are some of Emmitt's Party guests!
Violetta was invited by Ma Rose...
Thanks so much Ma Rose and Stacy for helping Emmitt and inviting these precious children to his party!
I also included Janna (invited previously) in this post because she is a roommate of Stellan and Travis...
(And is a special girl to me!)
All these sweetie's need families!
You can read more about them by clicking on their names in this post.
You can learn more about how to adopt by clicking HERE.
Please consider sharing their plight with your friends...
Perhaps one of these kids could be theirs!
*****
Are their violets in your garden?
If not I hope you'll choose to add some!
Cause there's a very special beauty that only violets bring!
*****
As always...
Please continue to pray for Emmitt!
That God will keep him safe make it possible for him to be adopted before his time runs out!
*****
Don't worry - she still has a family!
But their family sponsorship fund is very small...
Adoption is expensive so if you are able please consider dropping a few dollars in their fund to help Victoria come home soon!
To read more about Victoria's family or donate to their sponsorship fund on Reece's Rainbow (tax deductible!) please click HERE!
It's so lovely to see her sweet face in my post again...
I can't wait till she's home!
