...Great post, and very convicting to me personally.<br /><br />You mean the need to be in control is not trusting God? You mean I can't do a better job of raising my kid than God can? <br /><br />Yes. <br /><br />Ouch.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459576509805897104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173054993762076586.post-45172845746390439542012-12-10T22:51:20.742-05:002012-12-10T22:51:20.742-05:00Thank you so much.

We always knew we wanted to adopt, but assumed it would be after we had biological children. Now that I am faced with the possibility of not having biological children, although I do have moments of feeling "broken" I have to keep reminding myself that God created me exactly as I am and that my family will be beautiful and full of love. Even if they don't look like me, they will look like Him.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11628802360965362377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173054993762076586.post-24727581089472997682012-12-10T21:32:30.053-05:002012-12-10T21:32:30.053-05:00We were totally going down the home-school route, ...We were totally going down the home-school route, committed and convicted... and she's obviously in public school kindergarten. So many things factored in, including those issues you mentioned - a kid who wanted to go to school (and is thriving there), a mom who has two more (and one on the way, not to mention finishing school herself) and is already on the brink of a mental meltdown... I'm glad we can commit for this year and reevaluate as needed (even with each child)... and that we can trust the Lord with the lives of our kids. May they be a blessing to their peers and teachers!emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06590523968280949137noreply@blogger.com
