I Think I have Found Her...

I sometimes check in on kids waiting to be adopted - just to look and to pray that they get their homes.

But a few days back I saw a little picture and I've struggled with when, how and if to mention it here. Knowing it may all come to nothing - I think I have found her but I am not sure. She fits the 'feel' of what I have been feeling, if that makes any sense? The age is right, or will be by the time. She is domestic and the area she lives in right now is right, her favorite things feel like what I felt. I can't stop staring at this picture.

But I am not ready.

Only God knows for sure if this is her and all I can do is pray, prepare, keep moving forward and have faith that I will know in time.

Found your blog today. I too search the waiting children listings. I try not to get too attached, telling myself I am only praying on their behalf...but hoping God makes more ways to help more kids-especially in our home!
