Phillip

For several years my daughter and I sponsored a beautiful boy through the New Day Foster Home in Beijing, China.  Phillip came into this world with several profound challenges and has been cared for by the wonderful and dedicated people at NDFH.  He has endured multiple surgeries, had been been given worst possible outcome scenarios of never walking, talking or engaging in life.  Each time he has beat the odds and has grown into a handsome, talkative, rambunctious and very active little boy!

But sadly, over the years, in spite of his amazing progress, he watched by as his foster brothers were adopted while he was passed over.  We can only imagine what this little boy was feeling when he was not chosen by a family.

Last night, my daughter called me from a friend's sleepover.  She had just heard the news we had prayed for over the past couple of years.

Phillip has found his forever home.

It will take many months for details to be finalized, precious first meetings to take place. But he is matched.  He is wanted.  And he has a very bright future in his own family with parents and siblings who will love and support him throughout his life.

Life is good.  Congratulations to you our dear, dear Phillip.
