powerful adoption story

This wonderful story from the NY Times really sums up the essence of becoming an adoptive parent. It reminded us of how we felt when Garty's survival was in question last fall and we realized that we didn't care what was wrong with him or how many long term health issues he had as long as he made it home. Now we look at him wearing Joshua's glasses and hanging on to the couch with one hand as he mutilates the Walmart flyer with the other, and we are amazed by the miracle that took place in his little life.
