About a month ago, I got an email from a lady in another part of the world. She'd seen a picture of Daniel that I posted on an Eastern Europen adoptive families site, announcing the completion of his adoption.
She recognized our boy. She'd been at his orphanage about a year and a half ago, adopting her son. While she was there, our little man would go up to see her, smile, and make contact. They'd made a connection, and he'd made an impression on her. She was so thrilled to know he now has a family.
I can't help but wonder when families like hers came through, did he wonder "when will it be my turn?"
And I can't help but wonder how many others that are still there are thinking the same thing.
Please take a few minutes and watch this video. And pray how you can make a difference in the life of an orphan.

Whew, who knew an animated film could touch my heart so much :(
Thanks for sharing.
*Tears* Wow, that is definitely worth re-posting.
That was awesome. I watched it...twice...with my son. He said he felt bad. I wanted to say he shouldn't because he was the one who got adopted, but I am pretty certain I know what he meant.
