Those Eyes!



Do you see her eyes?

Sweet sweet girl
Do you see the hope?
The spark
The will to live...the will to love?
I don't understand. 
How can it be? 
Seven years and yet you haven't given up.
Please DON'T give up.....
Wait
Wait just a little bit longer.
Please Lord.



"So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine"
(Hillsong/Oceans)

Baby girl.....keep your eyes above the waves.


We love you.

Query

I'd love to hear from you...

Please answer in the comments.

Worthy?

The list is long:



The cant's
        The struggles
                    The won't evers 

The questions from others:



Can she......
      Will she ever.....
                  What if....

It's true.
She may never.
Does that diminish her worth?
Does that lessen her value?



She is our daughter.
She is our Hope.
God has called us to her.....
And she is perfect.

Love You Forever

adopt Pray foster Pray advocate Pray donate Pray support Pray


Foster Care
Will my heart get broken?
It already is.  
The moment she walked into our home...this little freckle faced girl. 
This five year old who knows too much. 
This "baby" who tells me that she always made sure her mom had lunch. ....who has learned she must be the caretaker.
This little one who cries at night.  As I sing "Jesus" songs to my sleepy girl my tears mix with hers.....different pains, different hurts..our tears mingle.
Will my heart get broken?
It already is.
Maybe.....just maybe ??
...one heart breaking
...one heart mending?
Tear by Tear. 
Kiss by Kiss.
For this foster mama Forever is today. 
Forever is this moment.
We love you forever little Miss B.
