CHARITY FAITH

What can I say about this little angel?!  

Violet, Bethany and I talked about trying to get a second child at the same time as JB, but thought it was impossible.  While we were praying about it, we found out that China started this new program called Special Focus children.  It is a program where these precious little ones that are harder to adopt for whatever reason are put into this program.  It was not long after we put in our paperwork telling the adoption agency that we were interested in this program that we got the call.

The adoption agency said that they had a little girl that was older than we had specified, and had different physical needs than we specified, but when they saw her picture they thought of us.  There is no doubt in our minds that God had Charity all planned out for us.  There is no other explanation for getting that call.

To make a long story short, we again fell instantly in love with the picture and could think of nothing else but bringing her home with JB.  The financial piece of this decision didn't hit home until the fees started showing up.

It is hard (at least for me ) to let the fact that our God is bigger than all of this to get from my heart to my head.  Its very easy to get overwhelmed and to focus on that piece of the adoption and forget about the lives that we are making a difference in.

I hope this make sense.
