Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Psalm 82:3

What if there are children who will suffer somehow because I failed to obey God?
What if my cowardice costs even one child somewhere in the world his or her life?
(excerpt from The Hole in Our Gospel)

Wishing I were that ball

I think the title of the post speaks for itself.

Kyle is home safe and sound. Slept a LOT since his very late arrival Wed. night. I think I would too if I were up for 51 hours with only short naps totaling 4 hours. He wasn't even grumpy or anything! What a trooper he was.

Dad-to-be will post something soon. He had to go back to work today (sadly, his job doesn't stop just because he is trying to adopt a little boy, dang it!) and who knows how long it'll be before he gets caught up.

Here's a little known fact. One year ago TODAY this blog started. I can honestly tell you that I never dreamed it would turn into an adoption story...but then again, we stopped family planning 13 years ago. Happy first birthday, lovingtheorphans.blogspot.com :o) Goofy, I know...but today is a special day for our family :o)

And happy birthday to Hailey - 11 years today.
Love to you, from Dad.
