We praise the Lord that He has written our story before we were born. We praise Him that we were fearfully and wonderfully made. We praise the Lord that He has a plan for us, a plan to prosper us and not to harm us. We praise Him that we can cast all our anxiety on the Lord because He cares for us. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Praise Him, the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
We praise Him, the God of all grace, who called us to his eternal glory in Christ, after we have suffered a little while, will HIMSELF restore us and make us strong, firm and steadfast.
To God be the power forever and ever. Amen.
We will not have a new baby girl. She will be going to a different family and we are so excited another family will be blessed with a sweet baby girl.
Thank you for your prayers, the body of Christ amazes me.
Not to be flippant, or cavalier about this, but we are totally and completely fine.
Our meeting went well on Monday, but afterwards both Matt and I had a sixth sense that we should stop being excited. I could feel myself pulling away emotionally the past two days.
I do have a sadness stemming from the unknown. I would like more children, but I may only have two. And two kids is awesome, but whenever life hands you something different than you thought, there's a period of mourning. Which, I believe, most people can relate to.
I already did the period of mourning for never having biological children and have moved on to loving adoption. I don't want to mourn only having two kids. But I will if that's what the Lord has.
My mourning today consisted of eating wayyyy to much birthday cake from Olivia's birthday. I think that's appropriate:)

Thankful you and Matt have peace, and most of all that this little one has a home and family waiting for her. God is good. And I really hope He has more babies in store for you, because you are an incredible mama.
