“Music is the universal language for children who have no voice”

 

F I N A L L Y !!

We received wonderful news today that yesterday, in Liberia, President Ellen signed the adoption bill into law. The long awaited news that so many have been waiting to hear has happened. Now children of ALL needs (not just special needs) will have the opportunity to have a family. 

This little guys name is Courage Samuel who has waited a long time to be unite with his brother and sister who were adopted into my family many years ago. We continue to hope and pray that doors open for children like him all over Liberia.

My Liberian Daughter

 

  

 

My daughter- Rejinna Joy started a new school this year as we had moved. They have Patriot Day every year and that was today. I was asked to come in to the school for a presentation as a special guest. Turns out my daughter wrote and essay that they wanted her to read to the school and community about Hereos. She wrote about me. This is what she wrote:

"My hero is really cool. She really cares about me.She would do anything to love me. My mom rocks. She saved me. She feeds me and gives me clothes. She tries hard to be my mom and that is why I love her very much. As much as she loves me. I couldnt ask for anything more. She is the best mom ever. She taught me many things I didnt know about. If I didnt have such a wonderful mom, I dont know what I would do without her. My mom is the only hero I have. " Reji

That just melted my heart. She is the one that is the hero in my book. She survived being in an orphanage and persevering by coming to a whole new world and culture and becoming acclimated to a family that doesnt even look like her. She is a shining example of the beauty that God creates and blesses us every day with. What an honor to be her mom for however long God needs me to be!!
