There are always these moments in life...ones that define the path. God calls these moments remarkable and asked the Jews to place a monument, what He calls an "Ebeneezer". It was meant to be a reminder of what they had seen, what He had done for them. We are in a moment like this now. We are on the eve of our fourth adoption. This is a child we had no idea He wanted us to have until Dec 26, 2012...she was 4 days old. We were 'done' after Grace. We were 'complete'! Ha...complete in our own minds, He knew better. She is our surprise child...grown ever so quickly in our hearts!
The road has not been as easy as we expected when they told us she was going straight to adoptions, I mean she was after all bio sibling to our girls. I mean no brainer right?? Ha! Nothing is certain in this life, least of all anything having to do with CPS. BUT regardless of the road we are here!!! We are about to add another little Self to this crazzzy family and I couldn't be more humbled and elated.
Her smile is infectious! She is the light of our life and makes us a better family.
"27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

Look at her beam. She may not know what today is all about ..... But will in time. In the meantime, she beams!
