Answers to Prayer' s

I sometimes wonder why I have been through the things that I have been through in my life. And missed the opportunities that I should have taken. In essence to my answers I have finally reached a point in my life when I realize that life is too short to dwell on things that were missed. And to wonder about the what ifs of this world. A hard lesson to learn but a lesson well learned I must say.
David and I have a wonderful little girl though she is not biologically David's, he loves her as much as if she were his own flesh and blood. For the past 15 months we have been trying to get pregnant without any luck. We have thought and talked about adoption but never sure if it was the right thing for us to do or not. We started praying in November about what we should do.. though the fun of any marriage is trying to conceive and if it is god's will then it will happen. But the hardest decision of our lives was to choose adoption over fertility drugs. Why you might wonder well... their is no guarantee that it will work, their is not a promise of a pregnancy. The thought of it scares me to death and it's not sometimes that I have completely ruled out. But we also feel that the lord is leading us in a direction that will bring a lot of love all the way around.

Children are a blessing from god and so is being a parent. The blessing of giving a child a home when they do not have a stable environment is the greatest gift of love. It takes a special type of person to have the time and devotion of being able to adopt my heart goes out to children who are in a unhappy home life or do not have a mom and dad. I am truly blessed in my life that the lord has lead us to this point in our lives. It can only get better when god brings to people together as one, and then brings wonderful blessings into your home to be loved.
