OK, so every time I blog I'm thinking that I need to blog more frequently, and then 3 months go by! First of all, Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there. What a tremendous responsibility we have. What a tremendous privilege and blessing we have!
My best Fathers Day gift each year is the wonderful group of kids I have, there are simply none better than mine (sorry, y'all can wrassle over 2nd place... :) Honestly, I have enough coffee cups and shirts! Of all the many bubbles my life has, being a husband and dad is top of the list and nothing else really matters in the grand scope of things.
A shade over 2 years ago we finished our first adoption and added two more kids to our family and what a blessing that has been. For all of the many varied stories of adoption we've heard of, we still get told on a pretty consistent basis how awesome ours has been. Kayleigh and Michael jumped right in to our family and if you didn't know they were adopted, you'd never guess it (LOL, when people try to pick the adopted kids out of our pics, most get it wrong!).
I can't really speak as to why these two kids were orphans and don't want to spend time guessing. All that really matters to me is that they're here now, and have a family and a dad who loves them, cares for them, protects them, and wants them. Knowing that they have that now is my best present today.
p.s. Spurs, you can add the frosting to the day by beating the Heat.... :)
Welcome to our blog! We are so excited that you would take the time to follow our adoption journey! Thanks for coming along for the ride as our adoption of Kayleigh and Michael was completed in May 2012 and as we embrace our new world of parenting five teenagers!
Go Heat!!
