Starfish

We believe the Starfish represents adoption:

A rough storm came up one night and left a sandy beach strewn with starfish.
The next morning, a child walked along the shore stopping every few feet to pick up a starfish and flinging it out into the sea.
An old man watched the child and finally shouted at him, why bother, son. "There's too many starfish to make a difference".
With that, the boy picked up another starfish and looked at it intently before heaving it out into the sea, then turning to the old man he said...
"It Makes A Difference To This One"...
