DEMARCUS WARE AND WIFE’S BUNDLE OF JOY
Dallas Cowboys’ linebacker Demarcus Ware and his wife Taniqua couldn’t be happier. The source of their happiness is none other than their little girl Marley.Yet life hasn’t always been so blissful for the Wares:
Last January, DeMarcus and Taniqua were hurting professionally and personally. The football season crashed when the Cowboys lost to the Giants in the divisional round of the playoffs. Sitting in the front row behind the Cowboys’ bench was Taniqua. She was crying as she talked on her cellphone to family members. Just five days earlier, Taniqua had suffered her third miscarriage.
After their third failed pregnancy,the Wares lost all hope,until a friend suggested they adopt. Now the couple have six-month-old daughter named Marley .Demarcus says this about his new outlook on life, now that he is blessed with his “bundle of joy” Marley,named after reggae artist Bob Marley:“
You are so happy because you have a little bundle of joy in your life.I even find myself going to Wal-Mart looking for little toys. When I’m going grocery shopping looking for food, I’m getting baby food instead of food for myself.I never had a father around and so now with Marley in our lives this has really taught me a lot of responsibility.It’s also taught me how important a child is and how much happiness a child can bring to a family.”
Demarcus Continues,
“I never had a father around and so now with Marley in our lives this has really taught me a lot of responsibility,” DeMarcus said. “It’s also taught me how important a child is and how much happiness a child can bring to a family.”
Wow, she is beautiful! Adoption is such a blessed and wonderful gift.

Adoption is such a wonderful thing! Many people always say that they want their own child, a biological child, but when you adopt a child you have the same feelings and have the same love that you would have for a biological child.

“The GAO report found that African American children made up less than 15 percent of the population in the 2000 Census, yet represented 34 percent of the children remaining in foster care at the end of 2004.”
Contrary to some new belief that white people are racing to adopt little black kids, that’s not true. Black kids still have the hardest time getting adopted. Maybe i’m wrong but if I had the funds and opportunity to adopt, i’d adopt black. But hey maybe they’ll adopt again and give a black child a home. Go ahead and eat my comments up – but that’s where I stand!

i can’t even pretend that this is okay….they had a special on 20/20 about how black children are still the last to be adopted with white children being first, asian children being second biracial being third and black children being last. dianne sawyer said alot of them stay in foster care til’ 18 because no one wants a toddler or teen.. I mean it’s nice and all but it’s still sad that we have to depend on white people to adopt black children, really sad.

it amazes me how people are so closed minded when it comes to whites adopting black but, are so open minded when it comes to blacks adopting whites lol! i just dont understand why people cant be happy that a child is finally recieving a home. well congrats to the family and i wish them many blessings forthcoming!

I agree with tpink it is EXACTLY as Antwone Fisher described, dark skin children are the LAST to be adopted even by their own race. SO SO SAD!!
