Life Goes On - Even When You're Not Sure You Want It To

I find it amazing and difficult to understand, but I'm still waiting. So much has changed in my life since I started the adoption process. Two of the most precious parts of my life are gone and it's still hard to believe that Tanner and Brooklyn won't grow up with my child/children. The second anniversary of my Log In Date for my China adoption has come and gone and I still don't know when I might get a referral - it looks like the winter of 2008 or later. And the Lord has put the possibility of parenting two other children in my life too - I trust He's in control. But it is hard to wait every day not knowing if I will have a daughter from China, or a daughter and a son from Arkansas. If you're reading this, say a prayer for me that I can be more patient and more trusting and that the Lord will heal my family's broken hearts - it's so hard. I miss Tanner and Brooklyn so much and my heart breaks
for the rest of my family too.


The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Psalm 34:18, NIV
