OK, so maybe this IS the way God wants it....

As you may or may not know, I have had some anxiety regarding my newest life adventure. However after today I am feeling much better about everything and am actually getting excited! I was at the grief center where i volunteer tonight and I got the sign from God that I was looking for...the sign to show me that this is the right thing. You see, I had been talking to a couple I volunteer with at the center about THEM adopting J because they are starting to get involved with the call. I was really pushing it, letting them know all about him, talking it up, the works! SO, when the idea of me adopting him evolved I was a little nervous that they would be upset. Well, when I arrived tonight I was talking with them and told them what was going on and they got all excited. Janet told me that she felt in her heart that I was the one who needed to adopt him and she was praying about it. That just made my day.......is this all really happening? Oh, I also bought some books to read about helping kids who have been rejected. If anyone has ideas about good kids/picture books that I can read to him when he comes to live with me that are about adoption (not baby though), faith, unconditional love, etc. let me know!!

  1. Hugs for Kids by Mary Hollingsworth is a great one I've been reading to my son to help with his self-esteem.
