I received a wonderful present today...it is a very recent picture of our newest addition, Noah. In addition to this, just seeing that he is healthy and happy was a gift in and of itself!
As I have stated before, Noah is currently part of the True Children's Home in Guangdong Province and is in foster care. Apparently, every quarter, the foster parents and children get together with all of the other parents and children and go do something really fun. Well this picture shows him playing on a car at a park with two of his friends...it is priceless... Can you tell which one is Noah? I will give you two hints...he is not the one on the left or the one on the right...:)
Getting this picture today makes me realize how precious our time with our children really is. How much we take for granted that we can get a picture of our kids whenever we want. We can hug and kiss them, tell them stories, laugh with them, take a walk with them, whenever we want. When all you have is a photo or two, and you never know when you will get them, you realize how precious they are.
Even though we are just starting this process again, and it seems to be dragging and not getting done, I know Noah is our son. He is the youngest member of our family. He is the one that will take the middle name of Leonard's great grandfather. He is the one that will share a bedroom with John. He is the one I worry about in school.
It is unexplainable, no words can do it justice...
