                MATT AND SHERYL MOHR: ANGELS IN ADOPTION

  (Mr. WALBERG asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize a remarkable 
couple, Matt and Sheryl Mohr from Hudson, as Angels in Adoption from 
Michigan's Seventh Congressional District.
  I had the privilege of visiting with Matt and Sheryl yesterday, and 
their love and compassion for vulnerable children is truly moving. In 
the past 6 years, the Mohrs have opened their hearts and home to 26 
foster children. Along with their five biological children, they have 
also adopted five children and are in the process of adopting two more. 
That will make a total of 12 children.
  When asked what led them to begin fostering and adopting, Sheryl 
said: ``I felt that I had a lot more love to give away.''
  Wow. Through their big hearts and unconditional love, Matt and Sheryl 
have forever changed the lives of so many children in Lenawee County. 
They are angels to the children they parent and incredibly deserving of 
this award.
