Love for Kids listed with "Mental Delays"

The kids featured in today's post have labels such as "mental delays" or "severe mental retardation." This terminology is considered out-of-date and offensive to many, but please see past these labels that have been given overseas.  Each of these children needs to be noticed and ultimately matched with their forever family.
