-- Two brave women made life-changing decisions by allowing the babies they couldn’t care for to be adopted -- and those decisions continue to bless her own family,  Alabama first lady Dianne Bentley told a crowd of nearly 100 Tuesday at the annual Stand for Life.

“People ask which two of our four sons are adopted, but we always say we’ve loved them for so long, we can’t remember,” Bentley said.
Bentley was the keynote speaker at the hour-long rally that also included Alabama Chief Justice Chuck Malone; former Chief Justice Roy Moore; state Sen. Clay Scofield; U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks’ wife, Martha, who read a letter from Brooks, Madison County Commission chairman candidate Wayne Parker; County Commission candidates David Michael Smith from District 2 and Scott Jones from District 3, local activists and clergy.
