Clara Says

I came across this poem the other day from Shel Silverstein's new book, Every Thing On It. The poem is called "Jake Says."

     Yes I'm adopted
     My folks were not blessed
    With me in the usual way.

     But they picked me,
     They chose me,
     From all the rest,
     Which is lots more than most kids can say.

I hope that you will understand how much you are loved because you were adopted, not despite it. We all love you so very much!

Can't wait to see you soon!

Love,
Dad
