Welcome home, Steeven!

It only took me two days to break my promise of blogging everyday.  Not bad.  In my former life I would need at least three months to recover from this setback.  Now, in my attempt to start giving others and myself a break, I will forego the months of negative self-talk and just jump back in.  If it's any consolation to you (but not because I need to excuse my behavior), we are in the process of switching internet providers, and that's why I didn't blog yesterday.

What I would really like to bring to everyone's attention tonight is the story of Steevenson, a little boy who is meeting his forever family tonight in the Miami airport.  His adoptive parents, Wade and Kristi, are good friends of mine, and everytime I try to envision their reunion tonight, I tear up.  Years and months of waiting have instead turned to hours and minutes, and I am so happy for them to finally be together, despite such horrendous circumstances.

God bless Haiti and all who work to restore her.
