Thank you to everyone who has been so incredibly supportive of my newest adventure-Foster Care! The piles of paperwork are done, the fingerprints are submitted, the doctor signed my clearance and my electrical outlets are covered. My home visit was today and now the worker just has to write up the report. He said that I should be licensed within the next couple weeks. Please keep praying and know that I am so incredibly thankful for your friendship and support (All 13 reference letters brought tears to my eyes!). Yesterday, I was second guessing/ overthinking /being pessimistic and out of the blue a waitress started telling me about how she had been in foster care between the ages of 2-4 and now at the age of 24, she wants to find her foster mom and thank her for the huge impact she had on her life. She didn't know me, she didn't know my thoughts...but God did. Also...strangely enough...my fortune cookie today said "Children will play an important role in your life"....
Seven years ago today, one of my favorite people in the world was born. Happy Birthday Cristian Elijah! There have been difficult things and amazing things that have happened in the last seven years. Truly the highest of highs and lowest of lows. It's incredible to think that seven years ago today a new little soul was born and today he is a brilliant, inquisitive, sensitive little man with unlimited potential to impact this world.
One of the reasons I blog about my garden is to see the progress...to watch as tiny little nondescript seeds become tall, bright sunflowers, beautiful roses and nutritious veggies. This is my third year of gardening and I think my little plot is starting to take on a mind of its own...
