It has been exactly six years ago today that Alex came into our home and never left. He was 18 months old on that day. I still remember his entrance through our front door. Alex had been living with My wife’s mother and Mandi had asked me about Alex living with us a few weeks before that Christmas visit but I really had not given it much thought. If I had, I am not sure he would be with us now. I remember deciding to let God decide.
At that time, I had been going to church on a regular basis for the first time in my life. One of the things that had been coming up on a weekly basis was that I should give my problems to God and he would handle the details. To me, Alex living with us was a potential problem, so I gave the whole issue to God. On that day, when I turned to see Nana and Alex coming through the front door, I knew in my heart that he would never leave.
He didn’t.
Six years later we have almost completed all of the legal requirements to finalize the adoption of Alex. It has taken years and cost greatly but it has been worth every minute and every dime. Alex has made a better man of me than any other person that has ever been in my life. I am sure that will always remain true as we continue through life together.
