Hi, this is Seth! He lives in China. He may not know it yet, but his life is a miracle! His waiting family already has a house full of kids (14 kids). China generally doesn’t allow families to adopt if they have more then 5 kids. His parents took a giant leap of faith and applied for him anyway... and the amazing (we are talking AMAZING with a capital A) thing is, China said yes! Now that would be AMAZING enough, but then something wonderful happened…someone gave them $10,000 towards the adoption of Seth. It is clear to me God wants Seth to grow up with the Wallis family. Isn’t he beautiful!!! What a sweet face! I just want to praise God for this kid!
