When you have the mental energy to blog again, I would love to hear more about your bonding process with Manolin. When receiving such an unexpected call and you suddenly find yourself with a new little person to love, how did that love take shape?
We got a similar call, only we expected reunification...now it's not so certain. It has taken a couple of months, but I think my heart is finally taking over. Up till now, I've felt more like I was babysitting. In court yesterday, I began to see the whole situation a little more clearly and I realized how much I care about this little one's future.
Thanks for sharing your life. I am encouraged by your stories of foster parenting!
I enjoy spirited debates just as much as pats on the back. Feel free to grab your soapbox and let 'er loose ... realizing, of course, that I am in charge of the all-powerful DELETE button. :-)
That's awesome. And amazing if it goes that quickly! I guess God can even over-ride the State.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy - enjoy-enjoy!
That is amazing! What a blessing that will be!
ReplyDeleteKeep us updated.
praise the LORD!
ReplyDeleteWonderful news - still praying tho'.
ReplyDelete...I must be a child of the digital age because "fast track" does not mean six months to me [laughing].
ReplyDeleteOf course, this whole adoption thing is teaching me that perhaps the best things in life are worth waiting months and months for.
That sounds like great news, though!
