I won't go into detail on this blog about the who's, what's, where's and why's of this adoption and why we don't have a baby here in our arms like we thought we were supposed to. Things don't always happen like you are told, or like we think they are going to. God has the whole picture in front of him...in fact I can let you in on a little secret...He designed it.
We continue to trust Him. I will not lie to you, it's hard. I have worn out the caseworker in the city where our sweet girl is. She gets text messages from me more times than I am sure she desires...but she has to know that this is a life that two people are praying for and have longed to parent. We always knew we wanted several children and God blessed us with the miracle of Bug and He has abundantly blessed our lives in more ways than we can count by allowing us to be on the story of her life...oh the stories we've been blessed to be a part of. Tough ones, sweet ones, sad ones...any of the stories that involve her eyebrows....too funny for words.
Now to be a part of this next miracle would be truly miraculous, however, we know that whether or not it happens...we are still in His hand. Protected. Shielded. Loved. We want His plan.
We are waiting, we are praying....still.
praying for you sweet friend and humbled by the grace you show during this time!
