We've learned so much about ourselves and what the plan for our family is. I sure can't wait to find out who Lynnmarie is.

The clarity that comes from this is amazing. You know you're where you need to be. And even if that's "waiting" (for your child), then so be it. What a wonderful gift! <BR/><BR/>Hugs to you, <BR/>Kim from caesarandlouie + 2Kim R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03675300443533252305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29418238.post-25021843394981425102008-03-15T12:20:00.000-07:002008-03-15T12:20:00.000-07:00Are all of you ok, I heard there was a tornado in ...Are all of you ok, I heard there was a tornado in Atlanta???????????????????????Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13055616878345288412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29418238.post-62807453279357462922008-03-15T12:19:00.000-07:002008-03-15T12:19:00.000-07:00Everything that you just wrote about are the thing...Everything that you just wrote about are the things I call "God Winks"!!! And it is amazing isn't it. It is also the most awesome feeling in the world to know that people are praying for you whether you know them or not. I love weekends like the one you just had, it is so renewing and life changing all at once . God bless you and your family. Our daughter Franceska that we will be getting from China will be my 7th child. Although the five older ones are my husbands, I have raised Steven since he was 8 years old,he will be 23 next week, I AM his only mom and our 15 year old daughter is adopted, but you know in our family we don't use the word step or adopted never even comes to mind. But I know exactly what that lady was talking about, because now since part of the Master plan has been revealed to me, I was never going to get pregnant because these children were supposed to be mine, and I probably love them 1000 times more because they did not come easy to me, I appreciate my children immensely, God has blessed me in ways I will never be able to explain. Adoption is alot more than just adding to your family, it is LIFE and LOVE and most of all BLESSINGS FROM ABOVE.<BR/><BR/>Love,Kristy<BR/>lid 4/21/06Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13055616878345288412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29418238.post-87291563935446627492008-03-14T14:05:00.000-07:002008-03-14T14:05:00.000-07:00What a moving testimony of love and faith you shar...What a moving testimony of love and faith you shared with us.
