Dad to Sarah and Micah

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.

Best Morning Ever

Micah crawled into bed with us this Easter morning and grabbed my cell phone to play games.  Suddenly, she gasped and said, "Wait...Jesus is alive!?"  She had seen my email summary from YouVersion with the subject, Have you heard?  Jesus is ALIVE!.

I said, "Yes, he's alive."

With absolute delight, she yelled, "Yay!!!!"

Best morning ever.

Nobody Wanted You?

Micah:  "Dad, when were you born?"

Me:  I told her the year.

Micah:  "How old were you?"

Me:  "I was zero years old."

Micah:  "And, then you got adopted?"

Me:  "No, I never got adopted."

Before I could finish, she gasped dramatically and said, "What?  Did nobody wanted you???"
