A little girl is born in China. She's too precious to discard, too expensive to keep. So, she's placed in a basket and dropped off near the police station where she'll be found. She spends her first months in an orphanage, not knowing what a mommy or daddy is. Across the world, a mommy and a daddy get a picture of the girl--an answer to their prayers. Though the journey that has brought them to this picture has been long, it is but the first step in an even longer journey…parenthood.
Yes, the Lord willing, Sarah's going to have a baby sister. We're starting paperwork for Number Two (which is what Julie wants to name her in spite of the unfortunate reference to a schoolkid's request to be excused). The excitement builds, as well as the anxiety. We are ever prayerful.
