3 Years

Three years, that's how long sweet Dmitriy has been waiting for his family to find him on Reece's Rainbow.

Three years.

I remember the first picture I saw of him. He was so small and easily the cutest thing I had ever seen, and he was wearing a shirt with a bunny. I thought surely someone would snatch him up, blindness, while life altering, is something that many cope with.

I have had the privileged of working at a preschool for visually impaired children around Dmitriy's age and it was a life changing experience.

In the future I will share some stories from my work with these children.

In the three years I have known about Dmitriy I have celebrated each new "found" child while also silently mourning that it was not Dmitriy.
