I've had the privilege of meeting several members of this family, including the little girl in the wheelchair and the boy playing the piano...with his toes. When Chris and I saw him at a Bethany Christian Services dinner, he was playing the guitar. His dad, Mike, spoke about how adoption had changed his life in radical, wonderful ways.
I just had to post this video. My two favorite quotes:
Sharon: "We are such victims of our culture...focus on what's important, and the rest will follow."
Mike: "There is no physical thing that you can buy that's going to give you true peace and happiness. The pure joy that will come from the rescue and ransom of a child's life is probably the most satisfying thing you can imagine."
Watch and be moved.
I like adoption.
