My faith wavered this week. I got shook by the fact that we may have another little bump right here before the end… To clarify I don’t think it’s a big deal. I think another paper needs to be filed stating that G’s dad does in fact want to drop the appeal. He does. There’s […]
I just had to pick up a prescription for G. I had to give his full name. I teared up. I don’t often have to say his full name so when I do it has always felt a little tough for me. I’ve often thought about him starting school and wondered how we’d handle changing […]
And. just. like. that. When we least expected it. God changed the heart of G’s dad. He filed a motion yesterday to withdraw his appeal. The fight is over. And, we are giving every ounce of glory to God for this miracle. We are still processing just how BIG this is, but from the bottom […]
Today I had the strangest sensation… as G stood in the kitchen and Jared and I at the table.. ahhh out of no where a wave of a gut punch hit me. G is still a foster child. I said, “Jared, do you ever just look at him and think gah he’s still in foster […]
Joz has been struggling with migraines. She asked what I thought was wrong with her head. Talk about soul crushing for a momma for a second. Sis has had a tough week. I told her nothing absolutely nothing it was just perfect and smiled. And, I told her that she was having headaches and the […]
{Election Day.} What a God given right we have. I voted early during one of the three days our power was out. Jared and I took turns standing in line while the other stayed in the car with our kids. I stood in line for an hour. Five people ahead of me a was a […]
{Esther} Fun fact: This was almost JN’s name! No joke for most of my pregnancy we considered naming JN, Esther. I love the book of Esther so much. There’s such a climax that does not disappoint. Oh, how the Lord used Esther to save a whole people is just astonishing. Think about it. In her […]
I was going through my pictures tonight and saw this. I haven’t really talked about it much. But, man I saw it and it brought back floods of emotions. This is the absolute perfect picture of foster care. This was 5:30 in the morning. G was scheduled to have tubes because his ear drum had […]
We are two weeks away from having G for two years. . Two years. Someone asked me today how it was going and where we were in our case. Honestly, I don’t know where we are. Our appeal hasn’t been filed still. I was then asked if it was frustrating. No, I don’t really feel […]
