This was our conversation the other day:
N: Is that Africa? (I had another families adoption shirt on)
ME: Yes, how did you know?
N: It has animals on it.
ME: Yeah, this is a shirt from another family that is adopting a baby from Africa too. I will be going to Africa soon to bring my baby home.
N: Why?
ME: They don't have a mommy or daddy, so Mr. Mowen and I will get to be their mommy and daddy.
N: You mean they are orphans?
ME: Yes, how do you know what orphans are?
N: I watch All Dogs Go to Heaven, duh. The girl and the dogs are orphans, they don't have a family or food. can we write a story about that??
ME: Absolutely! (I usually have to ask him to write something, and today he offered)
Here's what he wrote...
I can't get the picture to rotate, but you can see it was still a cute story!
That is about the sweetest thing I have read this morning! What a sweet boy! God has placed a desire in his heart! When I was a young girl, everyone would ask where I wanted to go if I could go anywhere, I would say: Africa. My family couldn't understand why in the world I would want to go there. 30+ years later they all knew why, because my baby was from there!!!
