Well, you all have heard me talk about Josh (Minli). This little guy is the only person that Emma Grace has spent her entire life with. They lived at the Fuzhou orphanage together (not sure if they were in the same room, but they were both there together). They were then both taken to the hospital for heart surgery, where I would guess they were kept in the same room. Then, they were taken to PHF together, where they lived in the same house... until we cam to get Emma late October. It was heartbreaking to take Emma away from him, and we want nothing more than for Josh to find a family. But, his papers are not ready, so he will sit and wait.I got a little emotional when I saw this picture. First, I am so thankful he is at PHF and that there are people like Clay and Jewel (seen in the picture with him) that have sacrificed their lives to serve these children. But, he doesn't have a mom and a dad. I am sure he is loved, but he needs a family. He is very delayed, more so than Emma Grace was. We were told that they just found he has spina bifada, but it can be fixed. He has a heart condition, but that has been fixed as well. A family would truly make all the difference in the world to this little guy. I wonder if he ever thinks about Emma Grace and wonders where she went. So sad.
So, we are praying that 2011 will be his year. Hopefully his file will hit the shared list and a lucky family somewhere can snatch him up.
