I would LOVE to adopt again but my hubby is not on board and until he is I figure it is not in Gods plan. I love the honesty of your post. Seeing and loving orphans is crazy and soooo life changing.

It is my dream to someday take all my kids back to China to volunteer at an orphanage! Someday...when they can all sit still on that plane ride! : ) 1001tearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05099206975599414999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375418725964653828.post-71469977751700708352012-08-31T19:27:52.287-07:002012-08-31T19:27:52.287-07:00So honest & sincere. I hear your heart through...So honest & sincere. I hear your heart through this. We adopted domestically & have had numerous foster kids & reality is, the needs of these kids are so great that sometimes adopting only 1 is enough. (At least it has been for us so far) Although my heart aches for the orphan & I always imagines a house filled with kids, God has been showing me quality, not quantity. And that we feel that He wants us to raise that 1 the best we possibly can...while others He may equip to raise many. I struggle leaving that in the Father's hands, at times, trusting His ways are above our ways. Praying w/ you now..."Use us" too, my sister in the Lord. And remaining open handed to advocate for the orphan...whatever that looks like in days to come. Blessings, jenJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358082469481452041noreply@blogger.com
