Tonight it was just Caleb and me. Jimmy spent the night with a friend, Ben is out with friends, and Elijah konked out after riding around for an hour looking at Christmas lights. And tonight has been fun and special. We ate popcorn and watched Rudolph's Shiny New Year. We shared many hugs and giggles. I love this child of mine more than words can say.
While driving around earlier tonight looking at lights, the thought came to mind... What would I be doing at this moment if I hadn't adopted Caleb or Elijah? I can't imagine it. No matter what I would have been doing, it couldn't compare to the pure joy I received from hearing my little 8 year old Russian born son, calling from the back seat, "Go that way Mom!"
The sound of his laughter over the sight of Christmas lights felt like a kiss from Heaven.
Precious.
