What a beutiful post and what a beautiful little girl! We have been matched with a 4 year old little boy from Ethiopia and are awaiting a court date! I would love to email you! What is your email? I think we might live close to each other! Email me if you can! journeytoourkids@hotmail.com
I had a friend pose the question: “Is adoption the answer for infertility, or is infertility the answer for orphans?” One of the most profound an soul-searching questions I have ever heard. You’ve surrounded yourself with wise people.
I resonate with this in so many ways. I love your perspective. Congratulations on your next adoption. It’s addicting, isn’t it? 🙂
Our kids certainly find us, no matter what the path. I adopted my beautiful boy through foster care 5 years ago – but adoption was always my heart’s desire and choice – I knew God wanted me to be a mother this way. While my heart breaks for couples who struggle with infertility, it breaks more for kids who hear through the culture that their families came to them as settlements or second-choices for the babies they couldn’t have on their own. The question is powerful, indeed. But, still – I wish more families would start with adoption, rather that “settle” for it.
