I started the new year in the pool overlooking the sheer beauty of the Pacific Ocean and Costa Rica. A flock of birds flew above my head in a concrted effort. What do they know? What have they seen? Do they care where they are going or do they just flap their wings and go wherever they want to? Are they truly free or is it simply an illusion?
Regardless, it is absolutely breath taking here and I had a few minutes of quiet until the kids appeared. It was fantastic to swim with one of them as she held my neck because she doesn't know how to swim. Everyone has always told me that I would make a great mom. Will I ever know if that's true?
Two of the four kids that are here are adopted. One from Vietnam and the other from China. They are carefree beautiful girls who are so full of spirit and life.
