Of course Satan doesn't want us to bring children into our loving home when he can get them easier where they're at.<br /><br />Glad to find your blog (through A day in the life)... my husband and I are currently pursuing an AA DA. We have a bio son (through IVF) and had a 3 year old foster son for 4.5 months who we would have kept forever if we could have.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15316905569524661072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778083509403049514.post-31303528575953376502009-11-06T15:28:38.791-06:002009-11-06T15:28:38.791-06:00i love this post. can i just say, the song ... we ...i love this post. can i just say, the song ... we sang it at church the Sunday we decided to proceed forward with Paxton. God did so much in our hearts that day in church, and that song was just the beginning. "all my fears and failures" ... goodness! it's now the song that i sing to him. there is always fear in these types of decisions. their huge decisions! but oftentimes God just quietly requests our obedience. and i have thought alot about this. we could have said "we're not ready right now." and some other sweet family would have our blessing today. i know that God would get the job done without me and my willingness. he would have found our little Pax a wonderful family. BUT, we would be missing the blessing. and i know i've missed blessings from him before, from disobedience. it's easy to ignore God sometimes, you know. but it's always our loss, not His. wow - that was long. but thanks for sharing Ashley's post.Melodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589995674020326830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778083509403049514.post-49534931898697919722009-11-06T14:48:33.115-06:002009-11-06T14:48:33.115-06:00Hi!

I have had a longing to adopt since I can remember and can't wait to fill our home with kids that God has entrusted to us to care for.<br />You have such a beautiful family!!!<br /><br />ErinSeller Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06016211271153708691noreply@blogger.com
