Adoptive mom hatches "secret plan" to help cover other parents' adoption fees

After a distant cousin wrote a check to pay for the adoption of a child in Iowa, a woman took it upon herself to help other families seeking to make their family permanent on paper. Brittany Berrie began watching her adopted daughter, Gracie, when she was just a baby for a relative in a troubled relationship.

"When they asked me to watch her for the first time I said, 'absolutely,'" Berrie said. 

She was only 20 years old when she started caring for infant Gracie. Soon, the mother began leaving her in Berrie's care for longer periods of time.
