I remember when...
>> Friday, July 22, 2011
The other day we saw someone that we hadn't seen since we had adopted Faith. She said, "I remember when these two were babies!" I don't know where the time has gone, but they are certainly not babies anymore!
We have recently made this adoption blog into a book. It's our story! It has been so neat to read the blog entries from before Joseph was even a part of our family. God has been so good to us by giving us these two precious kids! He's been so faithful.
As we look at the book we have been saying "I remember when..." a lot!
We have so many memories from the adoption process. We have memories of how hard it was to wait and wonder. We remember depending on God to bless us as we waited. We had to lean so hard on Him. We had to put our Faith in Him. We trusted Him to work out all of the details. He was faithful, even in the hard times.
There was so much support from so many of you who commented on our blog posts and said you were praying for us. You really blessed us! It's so special to read all of your comments. Thanks for walking with us through this process!
We have memories of getting the news that there was a baby in Ethiopia waiting for us!!!!! You celebrated with us! God blessed us two times and picked out these two especially for us. They complete our family so well. Only God could have arranged it so well! We trusted Him and He pulled through for us. He is so faithful!
God has directed each step. He has walked with us through it all and He put our family together in His perfect way. We couldn't have done it better, even if we tried.
Never once did we walk alone! God has been and will continue to be faithful. We trust Him!
This song says it perfectly:
