First Visit

So...I began this blog to journal the happenings of our adoption but it seems as if it has now included the amazing journey of our foster care experience as well.  

Yesterday my husband and I met with our foster girl and her "team" for the first time.  I haven't seen her in over 2 years and she is just beautiful!  We had a great meeting and my heart is jumping for joy that God has chosen us to fill in the gap and love this girl.  We are going to have our first home visit on Sun and best of all, she wants to go to church with us!  We are going to watch football and I am going to make her a nice homecooked meal (she likes Italian) and it just so happens that I make a mean sauce with homemade meatballs! 


Thank you again Lord for allowing us to be your vessel.  Thank you for the heart of servanthood that you have bestowed on my family.  I feel so honored that you have chosen our family to minister to the lonely and the broken hearted...

I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!   Matthew 25:40
