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.
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???"
