My dearest son

My beautiful boy,
Mommy and Daddy keep your picture where they can see it every day. We spend our routines talking about how things will be so complete when you get home where you belong. There is not a moment that goes by that we are not thinking and working on bringing you home. I wonder if someone said they loved you today? You should never go a day without someone telling you just how special and loved you are. Did you get that extra cuddle today just because? Are you warm enough? Have you eaten enough? Are you sick? Scared? Lonely? Oh how it breaks my heart that you have to endure this. You are never alone. I will do everything in my power so that you never go hungry, never are cold, never feel lonely and never feel unworthy. Miles may separate us physically right now but I am holding you close in my heart. I pray daily that God watches over you until we can rescue you. I pray that God's love is keeping you warm and safe. The first time we saw your picture we knew you were ours. A gift from God. I only wish we were introduced sooner so you could have been rescued sooner. We have talked about what we are going to name you when you get home. We think your name is going to be Joshua Dawson Warner. Grandma picked your first name the first time she saw you. Your daddy wanted Dawson because it means David's son and he wanted to make sure you always know that you ARE his son. Please be patient with us son, this I promise to you- WE WILL COME FOR YOU SOON!
Love Momma and Daddy

I can't stress how important this is to our family. I can't begin to even stress how important this is to Cliff/Joshua. You are going to see his face often. I will beg for tax deductible donations often. I can't apologize for that. There is absolutely no loss of pride in asking for help to save my son. Would you let pride get in the way of saving someone you love? I know times are tough. We feel the pinch too. But every day that goes by without us raising enough funds is another day my son is without us. That will never be acceptable in my eyes. Please open your hearts and consider even a $5.00 donation to our efforts. I am working super hard to get the paperwork done as quickly as possible and the last thing I want to worry about is getting a court date and not having the funds to fly to reach him. Please continue to share my story and my son's journey home. Maybe you can't afford to donate but maybe someone you know could. God bless everyone and continue to pray for us.
