Some friends of ours are in the process of adopting a Haitian orphan they met on a mission trip shortly after the earthquake.  They have been back multiple times to check on him and to connect.  They have had to search for him when he changed orphanages.

This weekend they are having a garage sale to raise money to help pay their adoption costs.  We decided to make some donations.  I donated a treadmill which we do not use and a desk.  The boys donated their XBOX and all of the games.

We sat down and talked about what I knew about the little boy they were trying to bring home.  They had some questions I couldn't answer so we asked M when he came to pick up our items.

I asked Middle Boy why they decided on the XBOX.  He said it was because it really was a "life or death decision" for the boy from Haiti and if he could have a family that loved him that was important.  When he was talking about it Younger Boy started to cry.

It is moments like this where my heart nearly bursts, because these boys do get it. 

Thanking God for his compassion toward us and for the kindness and compassion of these boys.
