It's this time of year that brings to memory how FAITHFUL God really is! It was November of 2010 when I called the agency home finder because the house was clean, too quiet and I felt it needed a baby. She was shocked that I called her in that exact moment because she was putting my name and address into her GPS to stop by. She sat at my kitchen table to tell me of a baby BOY that was due to be born in December and he needed a pre-adoptive foster home. He has been ours since December of 2012 and I am so THANKful that God gave him to us. There is not a day that goes by that I don't thank God for the opportunity to be his mommy. Sprout turns 5 year old next month. Time flies. He is thriving and such a happy, healthy, fun little boy. He loves to be outside and he is such an athlete. He is in his 2nd year of pre-school and loves to go everyday! He has a few good friends and to watch them sit and play and use their imaginations...it's just beyond anything I could have possibly dreamed. The other day he was outside raking leaves and jumping in the piles. He was just loving life and being a kid. In that moment I remembered all it took to get here and I am just so thankful!
Our paper work is with the county and we are ready for another call. I am hoping for a newborn or young infant as I really want to enjoy the snuggles. We have a few things on the calendar so I wouldn't hesitate to say no if I don't feel we can make it work. Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I am just enjoying this autumn weather and looking forward to seeing who God brings to our home.
