We received the official relingquishment papers for our baby girl today. I didn't realize how emotional it would be. I ache for her birth mom and all that she has endured.
Lord, we pray that you will give Evy a heart for the weak and defenseless. We pray that she will grow strong in Your Word and in Your heart for the orphans in this world. Thank you for choosing us to be her parents. We know You have plans for her, to give her hope and a future.
"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps." Proverbs 16:3
We received our today too. My heartbreaks reading what has been endured. SO heartbreaking!! I only hope that when we meet them, I will be able to convey how truly blessed they have made us by this amazing gift of their child.
