Thank you!
I just wanted to send out a big thank you to all of our family, friends, and fellow bloggers who have showered us with their love, thoughts, prayers, cards, flowers and banana bread. We have been truly blessed to have become friends with another family, who are adopting from the same agency as we are as well as China, who lost their Ethiopian son in January in a similar situation. They have answered my many difficult questions, that I am sure bring back all of the pain that they felt in January, with such feeling and honesty that they have been a true God send. I am amazed at the number of people who have been touched by Sophonias' short life. It has always been my mantra that everything happens for a reason, but we are struggling to understand the reason behind this loss. I don't know if we ever will!

Mary--Here is what I do know: That Sophonias in his very short time in the world made more of an impact on people than some ever will in their entire lifetime. Nancy
Mary,
I full heartedly agree with Nancy...Sophonias' life was not in vain.
I am here for you...laura
Oh without a doubt - those two posts above speak the truth - Sophonias will be remembered long after a lot of others are forgotten - don't ever doubt the impact that little guy had on the world. He most definitely impacted mine.
Like laura said - we are here for you guys.
Mary - I am so very sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine what you're going through right now, but its wonderful that you have such a great support network. Our thoughts are with you guys. We're (hopefully) leaving on May 17th to go over there, let me know if there's anything we can do.
Shawn
