We celebrated this special boy's third birthday tonight with family and a few friends. I've never seen a little boy so happy as Nathan was watching his friends hit the pinata. He had a blast. We had a blast watching him have a blast. The joy on his face will not soon be forgotten.
But in the back of my mind the entire night I couldn't stop thinking about her. Our "Bianca", in an orphanage across the Atlantic, laying in a crib by herself. There was nobody there to celebrate any of her seven birthdays. She's never seen a pinata. She's probably never even received a present. Nobody gathers around her with joy to celebrate her life and how precious she is.
We're coming for you, daughter. We love you. We celebrate your life, and we promise to ALWAYS celebrate your birthday.
God loves you, sweet girl, and takes GREAT delight in you. We know He has great plans for your life.
