Celebrity “Adoptive” Parents
Looks like Madonna and Brad Pitt are not on this list from Adoption.com yet. What I think is fascinating is that the adoptee list includes Jesus…as adopted by Joseph, who, in theory was not his biological father. I am sure that many can argue that but it sure is something to contemplate. Imagine…the first adoptee…Jesus?
