It's been ten years since we walked Rex out of an orphanage and into our family. I am at a loss for words to adequately describe the experiences and knowledge all of us have gained over the last decade. The feelings sit deep yet loom large; their complexity presses heavily and their intensity can be overwhelming. We are changed to the core because of this child.
It's been a journey unlike we could have ever imagined on this road less traveled which leads on.
You are the bows
from which your children as living arrows are set forth.
The archer seeks the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.
~ Kahlil Gibran
