Yet another sign of that big ole babe train that is heading down the tracks!!!! Hoooootttttttt, hoooooooootttttttttt! Chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga!
Thank you to my sweet husband MP for getting this for my birthday - it just came today and I love it!!! I am dying to take a picture of it ON ME and will in a few days! Promise! Another toddler referral came today - we are very, very close my friends, like weeks away! Pinch!
Something that occurred today on a group was that someone was made to feel a little uncomfortable about speaking lightly of referrals etc. It IS something that is terrible for these children to have to deal with and grow with, but let's not lose sight of the miracle that adoption is. And I WILL NOT ever feel guilty for wanting and being excited for my childs union with me and my family. Ever....God DID chose ME and my husband to work through to bring them home here with us. For that I will never be ashamed of or guilty of. So, YES, the train is coming and this child is soon to be in their forever loving home that God chose for them and we couldn't be more thrilled for this next chapter in all of our lives.
I just LOVE that necklace! Can't wait to see it on you!
ReplyDeleteAmen, sister! That's right! There is pain in adoption, but also grace, and beauty, and the hand of the Lord. Never cease rejoicing in it!
