The Gift of a Glimpse
Because of recent events and God's leading we have changed countries, or at least we are in the process of making the switch. The coordinator for this country through this adoption agency, travels at least a couple of times a quarter to stay with the children in this orphanage and she intimately knows each child residing there. How cool is that?! She also keeps a blog about her visits and provides pictures of the orphanage and the children there. As I browsed through the pictures my heart just melted at the sight of the children. And then it dawned on me. Maybe, just maybe, I'm getting a glimpse of the face that will join our family. My eyes look at each one, thinking, this one could be ours, or this one, or these two could be joining our family next year. I just wish I could go and snatch up every single one, they all need a mommy and daddy. So as I daydream about our little one or ones, I am praying for them and loving them and can't wait to finally know who they are and start our new life with them. Their sisters and brother love them too and can't wait to add them to our crazy and happy home!!
