My sister just ran her first 10K (read the fine print and you'll see she actually ran more than that)!! Check our her blog for some rockin' photos and all the details.
(Bonus points if anyone knows the name of the musical referenced in the title of this post.)
And now, on a more serious note...
A passage from a book written by an adult adoptee, "Twenty Things Adopted Kids Wish Their Adoptive Parents Knew"...She imagines God writing a letter to her adoptive parents:
Dear Retha and Mike,
One of My children needs a home--a mother and father who will love her and provide for her. I know how much you wanted to have children. I know the tears and anguish you have experienced. But the only way I could make a place for this child in your home was through the open door of your infertility. I am loaning her to you for a while to take care of. Do the best you know how to do, for she is precious to Me. Someday, when you are gone, I will be her mother and father. She will learn to trust Me and depend on Me as she did on you. Thank you for being willing to love My daughter and give her a home on earth.
Love,
God
