Yes, Daniel is holding a "rat"!
The birthday hat has been a family tradition for many years - EVERYONE has to wear it.
Daniel is our second son and he is all boy! Missing in the summer - check the tree. Landscaping rocks moved-look for bug boxes. Buckets in the yard, beware of the contents! If it moves he's interested! A couple of summers ago Daniel had gone upstairs to shower and all of a sudden comes running down the stairs. I said to him, "didn't you go up to shower?" and he said, "yes, but I forgot I had a grasshopper in my pocket!" Out the back door he went to set the little creature free. He has a tender heart towards creatures of all shapes and sizes. Currently we have a large bullfrog tadpole we are watching in our sunroom.
Daniel also has a tender spot for little children and the underdog. He has great conversations with young friends at our church. He will be great big brother to Nathan!
Daniel is a blessing to our family for many reasons. Daniel was the first child to come to our home through adoption. His life has shown us the sovereignty of God as we look back and see the path he took to our hearts and our home. His adoption impacted us all greatly as we saw the parallel between our adoption of Daniel and the Lord's adoption of us.
Daniel loves to learn and has made a great turn around this year with his grades, we are very proud of him.
Daniel's future is so bright! It is bright because He growing in his understanding of the Lord. We are praying that the Lord leads his tender heart to mighty things for the Lord!
