A new smile

Exhausted from running a 5k & all he had to say was, "Back, Momma...mark, set....GO!" and I found myself running ALL over the yard with him on my back.  OH!...the things ya do for LOVE!!!  

It has been 2 years since I first saw his face and it sure has changed the smile on MINE!

A Face & A Name

CHENG-YU

There was a place in my heart for my son long before I knew him.  I prayed that God would bring us together, knowing that perhaps he was on the other side of the world.  Without a face or a name, he was tucked in my heart.    

On a Friday night while emailing a friend and trying to get ready for a high school football game, I received a call from our adoption agency.  My heart fluttered as I listened to a joyful voice tell me about my son...and for the first time, I hear his NAME.  She informed me that she was sending an email and instructed me to open it and then respond within 3 days.    

I am not even sure how to describe or explain how I felt inside as I opened attachments one by one that revealed my son...A Face and A Name.

I will never forget that Friday night on September 26, 2008 when finally my heart was filled with his Face...and Name.
