Adoption Obsession

Well I will admit I have officially become obsessed with the adoption and everything going into it. Everything in my life revolves around it. Somehow I think I can turn everything into a discussion or a day dream about adoption. I finally admitted it to Sarah tonight and she said I could have told you that a long time ago. Some of you who know me will know how my obsessions work. I become stuck on something and usually don't give it up until it's over. That being said I think I will have to on this deal or it may cause my hair to either turn gray or fall out. Tonight I finally decided that once we complete our paperwork we no longer have any choice in the matter. It will totally be in God's hands. I get frustrated with myself beause if I would have pushed it we could have been done a month ago but then I remind myself that we have our child out there waiting for us and the timing is all God's.

With all that said Sarah felt this huge burden to pray for the birth mother of our child today so we request prayers for both the birth mother and our child out there. It's quite likely our child is born or very close to it so please keep them in your prayers. It's constantly on my mind where our child is and how he/she is doing.

I'm so proud of you and Sarah for your decision to adopt. You both have so much love to offer a child (evident in Leah's life). This precious child God will soon place in your loving care will be so blessed. Thanks for sharing your experience with others. It's truly appreciated.

I'll be praying for you and the baby's mother.
