He’s Ready For His Family

9.14.11

Most of my editing work stays within academia. But, not this time.

I worked with Rob Molloy, a young man from Dublin who just got back from spending a couple weeks in China with Bring Me Hope, to write a piece to advocate for a very special friend of his.

This little guy is right now waiting for his family to step forward to bring him home. Hearing about him through Rob and watching him on video makes me want to get on a plane and go play some basketball with him myself (and basketball’s not even my thing).

The post starts with this…

I want to tell you about a little boy called Lei Xiao Feng (lay shou[t – without the t] fung). He is the most amazing boy that I have ever met, so joyful and energetic. I had the joy of spending 5 short but incredible days with him. Each day, I felt myself loving him more and more and, at the same time, realizing that I would have to say goodbye. . . . 

Read the rest here…

And, watch a video of Lei Xiao Feng here.

Email me if you want to know more about him. Let’s find this boy’s family.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
