It has been constant with all that has happened; meeting our new daughter and her wonderful foster parents this past Sunday.  I was able to put all those fears to rest as both couples got some quiet time to visit and share. I am always amazed how God puts these things together. They are fabulous, the foster mom and I have similar parenting styles which will make this process go so much smoother. All are looking out for the best interest of this young lady. This young girls journey in life up until living with the foster family was incredibly tough, i believe i would have crumbled up and crawled under a rock. It is obvious she is a survivor. I can't help but feel that God has some incredible plan for her life. Maybe just the fact that her spirit is in tact is her gift to others.

I forgot to mention that my mom got to be here and meet her latest grand daughter. Thank you foster parents for allowing that. That truly was a gift for her. On a much sadder note Steves dad passed away last night and with only two days left before we leave for China and the both of us still not packed, we will be functioning on a moment by moment mentality. Please continue to keep us all in prayer.
