    I'm glad that kid found someone to love him and that he had the kind of heart that was able to stay open after so much rejection in his life.

Idk what the circumstances were with his adoptive parents doing a safe haven drop but I hope karma gets them good. What a disgusting thing to do to a child that’s was already unwanted and abandoned. Fk them and never think about those people ever again! Congratulations ❤
