A Sweet Reunion~

Once upon a time two boys lived @ Shepherd's Field in China together... foster brothers sharing a house, room, and spending pretty much all their life together.
Parts of their story can be found here and here.

A month or so ago, Greyson's mom Kim sent me a text to ask if we lived near Anderson, SC as they were coming to a football Jamboree... YES~ only 30 minutes away. We both squealed that we might be able to see each other during the trip. As time grew near, we decided she and the little kids would stay the night here while Greg and big boys would go to Jamboree. I think our greatest anticipation was to see how the boys reacted to each other... after all, it had been 18 months since we had left with WP. Last night as they came face to face it was as if they were meeting each other for the first time~
But in no time it was like they were right back where they had left off... kind of like subconsciously they still knew each other. It was the sweetest thing to watch and witness!

Today was a day full of playing and more playing~
  Our kids just clicked and got along so well~
 And the friendship between me and Kim is nothing short of God planned. How do you get past losing a child in the adoption process? 
Celebrate the miracle of God's 'BETTER' plan for His orphaned babies and in the midst He blesses us with an amazing friendship.
Today as we were saying our goodbyes, I scooped Greyson into my arms and tears slipped from my eyes... happy tears that he has his forever~
A Forever family and a forever brother!
A sweet reunion!!  
Already looking forward to our next time!
