The Moat Valuable Riches Money Cannot Buy

I took this photo with my Nikon 35 mm film camera.

The very moment I met my wife, I asked God if He would grant to me that she would one day be my wife. We only met on a webcam for about 30 seconds and traded email accounts. We chatted via Yahoo messenger every day for over a year. We lived 12 time zones from each other. In spite our love grew and we married within 2 years of our first meeting. She was tiny and so beautiful! Her hands were calloused from much hard work.

Many years have passed and she is still my greatest earthly treasure. I am thankful for our marriage and want to grow old with her. Today she is still tiny! Weighing less than 90 lbs and still so beautiful! She is the only woman I could ever love!

Here she is with our son and our niece.

Now I would like to say something about our son. This little boy has brought so much joy and happiness in our lives.

We got him when he was just a little over 1 year old. His parents could not take care of him so he was left with his great grandparents. They are very aged and already have responsibility for 3 other great grandchildren.

This photo is our son and my wife when we first got him.

I remember at first he never smiled. But on the 4th night that he was living with us he began to sing. No intelligible words, yet singing with all of his heart. He has yet to have our last name, but we are now working together to finalize the adoption. It is a long and costly process. For this reason I am spending an extended season away from my family to earn some money to pay for the adoption and some dental work I desperately need.

Whenever the Adoption is final, I will be the Happiest Daddy Alive
