I will not leave you as orphans. I will come for you...John 14:18
This is a sweet reminiscence of our adoption journey to our son.

Something to think about...


There's been a thought going around and around in my brain. 


Have you been to your local animal shelter lately? 


I have been in ours quite a bit lately. (Lilly's birthday is coming up and I'm keeping an eye out for a small breed dog.)

Our local animal shelter is quite nice. It's clean. The animals are clean and well fed. But I'm sad every time I go in there. Because I know some will never be adopted. :( some animals will never know love. 

Today when I ran in there, I was happy to see they had half the animals. Most of the time they have about 40 dogs and 40 cats. 

You know how there's a humane society in just about every town in America? 


Well there's an orphanage in just about every town or county in China! 


Our local animal shelter has better conditions then Chu's orphanage had. 

My local pound had way less animals then the orphanage had children! 200 children in Chu's orphanage. 

Children people! Babies, toddlers, little ones who want snuggles, hugs, and blue balloons! 

And the pound smelled better. 


Next time you go to your local animal shelter, picture babies in cribs instead of dogs in runs. 

Please pray about adopting.
