Sharing Sunday: Walker

Walker is a beautiful little boy with HIV but by his wonderful smile you would never know anything was wrong. A child with such zeal for life should not be alone. Walker should be given every opportunity for a life filled with love and support from his family. But who is his family? Please visit Walker's profile. He so deserves a family who would give him all the love and assistance he deserves.


 
"Walker is a very happy and a radiant kid! He is "honey-sweet" with a healthy glow on his cheeks and beautiful huge brown eyes. He is sensitive and responsive: life-loving child with radiant smile."

Today, not so good

Just made another donation to Francine's fund but as for the social worker interview today, it was not so good. I mean I didn't expect my husband just to suddenly change his mind but I thought there might be a tiny speck of chance that he might start be with me on this but it seems not. The social worker didn't help any either. Though I know full well that both parents have to be 100% on board I thought she was pushing for domestic adoption and had nothing good to say about International adoption. She was making it really raw, the naked truth so to speak. Adoption could be harsh, long and expensive. OK I already knew that. So, I'm back at square one however I'm not ready to give up just yet.

Wishful Wednesday

No, it's not Wednesday but this Wednesday my husband and I have an appointment with an adoption practitioner for the consultation session. He has agreed to go though it still doesn't mean he's changed his mind but I'll take that. It's better than nothing and it could be a tiny sign that he has changed his mind he just doesn't know it yet.

Here is a link to Rick and Michelle's blog. They are adopting two girls from Ukraine and need some help in bringing them home. I think Rick was much like my husband Charlie who had no idea he would one day adopt.

Ukraine in my Coffee

I know, it's the strangest thing. I was at work this morning pouring just boiled water into my cup which already contained coffe grounds and cream and as it filled up a very clear design came up in the middle. For some reason I stared at it for a while, thinking the design reminded me of something. I just couldn't shake it. Quickly, I went to check on the internet for a map of Ukraine and lo and behold that's what it was, Ukraine in my coffee. I could hardly contain my excitement. I sent a message to my husband saying that this was a sign we had to consider.

Sharing Sunday: Cool Dude

No, he's not an orphan. This little cutie-pie is my grandson, cool little dude, Brandon. He is growing so fast, I can hardly believe it. He's past six months and about sixteen pounds. He's come a long way from the tiny thirty two weeker. He's active, playful and doing everything he should be. He is well loved, has all the toys a little guy could want, a ton of clothes and food to eat. I'm so glad he's lucky that way.



This little guy is not so lucky. He will not have toys or his own clothes and most importantly he will not have the nurturing love from his own parents who would do anything to see that he leads the best life possible. Unless he's adopted very soon his life will be miserable and lonely.


THIS IS LANGLEY



He's a cool little dude too and so cute. He was born in 2007 and has Down Syndrome. He is easy going and plays well with others. I'm sure he would make someone a wonderful son. Please, think about bringing this beautiful little boy home to your family. Don't his eyes look straight into your soul?

Praying for Francine


 
Francine needs a family ASAP. I am talking to my husband about her constantly. I would love for her be our daughter and give her a family she's never had. She would have big brothers and sisters who would dote on her. She so deserves it. I hope God answers my prayers one way or another. This waiting is excruciating. Thank you to Jane for working so hard to bring Francine's adoption fund to over five thousand. Fantastic job on that.

Dear Masha

Masha, you little sweetie, you started me on this crazy road I'm on. You've got me obssessed about something I never imagined I would ever consider in my entire lifetime. You've turned my whole family upside down, half of whom think I've gone insane. Then you go and find yourself another family. What's up with that? Was your only mission to show me the way back to the Lord? To do good on his behalf? To save an orphan from impending doom? Because of you someone else may get saved. I hope and pray it will happen.

PS. Ti ces uvijek biti u mom srcu.
