Travel with Margaret Schwartz as she embarks on a journey to find the children who will fill the emptiness in her heart. Chronicling her personal struggles, this book reveals the courage, fortitude, and spiritual strength Margaret developed as she made the transformation from a carefree, successful businesswoman to a single mother of two children with a house full of toys and diapers.

This is a once in a lifetime experience that takes her half way around the world to a country that is rife with poverty and corruption. The Pumpkin Patch details how she navigates the bureaucracy of Ukraine, a country that ignores the needs of thousands of abandoned children. Throughout this 18-month process, the author learns as much about herself as she does about international adoption.
