Have you seen how blog land has been coming together to raise funds for each other's adoptions? Have you seen it? I am blessed by the things I've read in the past few days!
Lynette making a quilt and then selling the the appliques she designed so that others may make a quilt while raising funds for her friend, Holly's, adoption.
I am blessed by the actions of God's people. Truly blessed!
I have a friend who has a little boy who was born in April 2006. She was remarking that Kai would be 3 on his birthday and I remembered. I remembered that during the Christmas season when we found out about the baby we wanted to adopt, I said to my husband, pointing to Kai, this is where we will be next Christmas. I remember thinking that Kai would be one in the same month that our baby boy would be born. And so I remembered, that our son would be two this April. And I morn, again.
We heard from our agency that we were not the family picked to adopt the little boy that we put our homestudy in for in December.
Ironically, later that afternoon, we received the bill from our agency for submitting the homestudy. Ahh, such is the game of adoption.
Actually, I am doing okay. Wondering what God has for us in all this. Wondering if I'm missing what He wants us to do. Wondering if three children is the size of our family.
I'm so glad you're here. My name is Elizabeth. I'm a home school mom to three lovely children. We have been blessed by the miracle of adoption from the foster care system. We live in a lovely little cottage on a brick street.
