We had our first, official conversation with an adoption placing agency today. Wow, did my professional self ever exit quickly! I became the nervous parent. After thinking some about this, I realized that I was actually having some sort of a trauma reaction. They happen so suddenly.
I hope this time turns out better than the last. I still pray for our Hunter (that’s what I call him). He will always be one of my boys. Not many understand, and that is really ok. I don’t know that I understand. Please join me in praying for the boy we couldn’t keep. That he will find a forever family that is more able to handle his needs than were we at that time in our lives. Please pray that we can be humble/focused/loving/Godly parents to whatever child God has for us. Please pray that we’ll see what needs to “give” so that we can still be connected to the boys we love here.
This journey may take over a year. I think I will need that time to be ready, maybe much more than that! We’ll see…
Watch out, God is working. It ain’t easy. By faith I see that it will be/is worth it.
