American Idol and Adoption

Found this on the Adoption Ark blog;

If you have been watching American Idol (and who isn't) you know who Aaron Kelly is. Aaron is a bright eyed talented 16 year old from Sonestown PA. He belts out songs with the voice of a singer twice his age and the girls swoon. One thing you may not know about Aaron is that he is an adoptee. At age 5, along with his brother, he was adopted by his aunt. Despite coming from tough circumstances, he thrived and travelled to various singing competitions before landing a coveted spot on the mega hit TV show. Aaron is yet another example of the determination of the human spirit and a testament to Adoption Ark's belief in the blessings of adopting an older child. We wish Aaron continued success in the competition as it narrows down to the top 10!!!

Awesome for adoptive kids to see and know!
