Beautiful Words

I found something online that I believe completely and accurately sums up how we feel about our pending adoption:

"Adoption: Not a second choice, a fallback option or because you can't have 'your own,' but wholly believing you are seeking to bring home the very child God created with you and your home in mind, fully equipping you to be the very parent He created you to be." - author unknown

Beautiful words.

New Jersey born poet and my favorite!!!

on getting a card long delayed from a poet whom I love but with whom I differ touching the modern poetic technique I was much moved to hear from him if as yet he does not concede the point nor is he indeed conscious of it no matter his style has other outstanding virtues which delight me _____________________________________________

The Hurricane
by William Carlos Williams
The tree lay down on the garage roof and stretched, You have your heaven, it said, go to it.
