Today, our little boy in Ghana turned 7.
He probably doesn't even know that it is his birthday, but we celebrated for him.
Micah and I made chocolate chip cookies.
We sang "Happy Birthday" to him, and Micah blew out a candle on his behalf.
But, all day, I've felt uneasy. And emotional.
Part of my heart is across the ocean, and today was his special day. I ached to be with him and to celebrate with him.
That day is coming when he will be with us.
His 8th birthday will be one for the record books, that is for sure.
So, December 7 in the Fieldhouse was a day of celebration of the life of a sweet little boy that we claim as ours. We celebrate the day he was born and that God created every part of him.
Happy Birthday, my boy.
