3-year-old's beaming adoption photo wins over Internet



Moments after his adoption, Michael Brown, 3, celebrated in a photo that soon went viral.


"Meant to be" is how his adopted mother described Michael Brown's addition to her family just in time for Santa's arrival.

Tara Montgomery, a single mother, told CNN's "New Day" on Saturday she wasn't initially considering adoption, but when plans to reunite Michael with his biological mom fell through, she knew she had to make sure her foster child would never again wonder where he might end up next.

"He's been through a lot. This is his third foster family," she said, "but he had been with us for so long, and he was a part of our family."

When the biological mother's rights were severed, Montgomery immediately filed the adoption papers, and on Tuesday in Phoenix, things became official -- much to the child's delight.
"He wakes in the morning and says, 'Mom, I so happy,' " Montgomery said.


We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
