I was going to get a six-month old. A little boy. I was thinking of names, planning my move to a new house. Fixing my finances to hire help.
This is my life lesson this week.
In adoption, the mother can change her mind any minute. The adoptive mother should accept it. She changed her mind and I have to accept that maybe this boy is not the baby that God intended for me.
This was actually too good to be true. I never heard any adoption story that got resolved in two months.
Those of you who drop me a note about this say you don't know me in person, just in fanfics. But I want you to know in this part of my life you know me more than the person I sit next to every day at work. This is something I can only talk about here where it's close to anonymous. This is a hard thing to go through. But this is my life.
Today I will pray for guidance and strength.
I hope you will join me in praying that whatever God's plan is for me--and know that I KNOW in my heart I was meant to love and take care of a child--will happen in its due time.
