There are days like today that I feel like part of the circle of life.

I had a lunch meeting with a new business connection here in town. As we exchanged personal backstories, we began to see similarities that defied coincidence.

To make a long story short, as we talked about my sister and her heart story of adoption and foster care, my new friend confessed that he had just lost a college friend to a heart attack at age 40. Left behind a wife and a 4 year old boy. So when he heard the latest (possible) adoption story from my sister, he felt blessed knowing that there are folks out there who look after kids without parents.
