I thank God for this everyday. I was reminded of this again recently. I spoke with a mom that is matched recently with a little one that is deaf, in the right age range, and at the same baby home Adelyn grew up. For just a fraction of a second I was jealous. That’s EXACTLY what we went into this adoption dreaming of adopting. Same special need as Adelyn, same background, same experience. Let me say I’m sure that little girl is AMAZING. But I am so glad Gods plans were bigger and brighter for us. I have grown in my faith this year in ways that will NEVER be taken away from me. I have had the opportunity to take on what will likely be harder, but has been the most beautiful journey. And you guys this child, this child that matched literally NOTHING in our home study… she’s just amazing, and we’re going to get her next month. I knew from the first time I saw her picture, scared out of my mind, that she was the one. If God hadn’t given me that dream, if she hadn’t moved to her current foster home, if it wasn’t for her Reece’s rainbow profile, if I didn’t have so many friends who have adopted more challenging needs the second time around, we could of missed this. Our daughter. We could have missed her. What a tragedy that would have been. But our God is bigger and he knew while she met great hardship that one day he would place her in a family that loves her more than they love themselves.
