Daddy and Son

"Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid, one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory."

~ Douglas MacArthur

I love this picture. How Jon is holding him, and Bryce has these BIG eyes and the light shining behind him. He doesn't look like anything is wrong with him. Just in aw over the camera. We got the medical report today, and now reviewing to to make our decision. A part of me want to fix him and go get him, the other part wants to make sure that my time is equal between all the kids so that nobody feels left out when one had special needs and needs me more for appointments or therapy.

I got some personal email from people telling me their story and a lot of people say when they got the baby home and in their environment with their kids, the baby developed so fast and is totally caught up to his age and doing fine.

I keep praying and looking for the answers. Sunday we leave on a nice week long trip, gives me time to think, and figure things out. When I get back I will know in my heart the right thing to do. It was nice the Embassy Doctor came and saw him and gave a unbiased opinion and evaluation in depth. A lot DIFFERENT than what we were told by the orphanage, NOT as bad as they said, which puts me more at ease. Here is also another picture, he looks so healthy in, he was calm and just had a feeding. I love this photo laying on the African blanket.
