A different perspective
Time is flying by, but a month or so ago it stood still. We were told about the opportunity to adopt a baby with a significant medical condition. We prayed and considered, but we ultimately determined we were not financially and emotionally equipped to take this child. I expected to be chosen to consider a child, but saying no to one never really entered my thoughts. And it is harder than I thought it would be. Even now, it's hard. But I trust and pray for this sweet baby. That he will land safely in the arms of a loving home. I think of the birth mom, and her overwhelm. I think of my own. And trust that her prayers and mine will be answered for this child.
