Lots of Love

After we adopted Amani, actually the first day we brought him home, our friend Rodger commented that this little boy had won the love lottery. I thought that was such a sweet sentiment. As these last four months have gone by I have often been overwhelmed by watching the abundance of love that is poured on this precious boy. Everyone who meets him instantly adores him and he is constantly being held, kissed, tickled, talked to and smothered with love. I find the contrast of what his life "is" to what it "could have been" so striking that it takes my breath away. I thank God that He let us win the love lottery by bringing Amani into our lives!
