Happy New Year! We will be a spending not so quiet evening at home with the boys. We always get fire works and let them shoot some for a while. We will probably watch a movie and watch the ball drop in New York (which by the way my sister saw the real thing up close and personal while she was there in November) and then off to bed. That's light years away from what we used to do BK but we wouldn't have it any other way. I'll try to post the picture of my sister and her family standing by the ball. It's not at all as big as it looks on TV.
Hope you all have a safe and happy new years eve!!
UNTIL FOREVER
This morning in China a mother cries
She'll never forget her daughter's eyes
Her heart is broken and filled with pain
Her tears run down like the falling rain.
She has no choice but to leave her there
The cost of keeping is too much to bear.
She hopes her daughter will one day know
True love can be found in letting her go.
This morning in China a baby cries
Hungry and scared as tears fill her eyes
Her mother has left her in this public place
Another lost daughter of the Chinese race.
Someone passing has heard her soft moan
She is soon taken to a foster home.
It's here she'll reside in the care of another
Until she's adopted by a brand new mother.
That very same day in the U.S.A.
A woman cries as she starts to pray
Her heart is heavy but filled with much love
She prays for a daughter she thinks the world of
"Dear Jesus, I ask that your arms would be
Wrapped tightly around the one picked for me
Guard her in China until I make my way
and then in my arms she'll forever stay."
-Tom Fisher
Romans 8:15
Ye have received the Sprit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
