I would like to share a beautiful story. The wait has gotten longer for our referral of Katherine and for so many other waiting families. After reading this, it helps me to appreciate the long wait.

"A young boy was given a large seashell as a gift. He had to take a canoe to get back to his island and it was very difficult to transport this large shell while navigating the canoe. When approached by the gift giver in the future, he was asked how he managed getting the seashell home while captaining the canoe and was asked if it was difficult.

The boy replied, No.....
The long journey is part of the gift......"
