3 KIDS UNDER 2

A COUPLE MONTHS AGO MY MOMS FRIEND ,FRIEND DAUGHTER WAS PREGNANT, SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS HAVING A GIRL, BUT IT END UP BEING A BOY SO SHE WANTED TO KEEP HIM SINCE SHE HAD A GIRL, BUT HER MOM WAS RAISING THE LITTLE GIRL, SO ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO WE GOT A CALL FROM MY MOMS FRIEND ASKING IF I WOULD ADOPT BOTH THE 16 MONTH LITTLE GIRL AND THE 3MONTH OLD LITTLE BOY,MY HEART DROPPED AS MY MOM SAID IF YOU CANT ADOPT BOTH, SHE SAID THEY WOULD SEPARATE THEM I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE SAD TO DO THAT, AT FIRST WE TALKED ABOUT ADOPTING THE LITTLE GIRL AND MY SIS, ADOPTING THE 3 MONTH BOY, BUT THE MORE JOSH AND I TALKED ABOUT IT WE THOUGHT IT WOULD NOT BE FAIR TO ZAK BECAUSE SHE MIGHT HAVE ATTACHMENT DISORDER, AND ALL MY TIME WOULD GO TO HER, WE COULD NOT DO THAT TO ZAK, SO THEN MY SIS THOUGHT SHE WOULD ADOPT BOTH OF THEM, SHE TO WOULD HAVE 3 KIDS UNDER 2, WE FOUND OUT SOME NEWS AND THEY THOUGHT MAYBE THEY SHOULD NOT ADOPT THESE SWEET KIDS, ITS SO HARD TO THINK THESE KIDS NEED HOMES, I HOPE THEY FIND A FAMILY THAT CAN GIVE THEM THE LOVE THEY NEED AND DESERVE, ADOPTING IS NOT EASY IT IS A ROLLER COASTER, NOT KNOW FROM ONE DAY OR ANOTHER WHEN YOU COULD GET THAT CALL, WE WERE UP AT JOSH MOM AND DADS THE OTHER NIGHT AND ONE OF HER FRIENDS WAS OVER WITH HER DAUGHTER SHE WAS ASKING IF WE HAD HEARD ANY NEW WE TOLD HER ABOUT THE 2 KIDS, HER DAUGHTER SAID I WORK WITH A LADY WHO'S DAUGHTER IS PREGNANT, SHE SAID THE GIRL WANTS TO KEEP IT, BUT HER MOM WANTS HER TO GIVE IT UP, SHE IS STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL, SHE WAS GOING TO TALK TO THE LADY AND LET US KNOW, THE WAITING IS SO HARD, I 'AM JUST THANKFUL I HAVE ZAK, HE HELPS ME. I LOVE THIS THOUGHT BY JOSEPH F SMITH HE SAY"EVERYWHERE IN NATURE WE ARE TAUGHT THE LESSONS OF PATIENCE AND WAITING. WE WANT THINGS A LONG TIME BEFORE WE GET THEM, AND THE FACT THAT WE WANT THEM A LONG TIME MAKES THEM ALL THE MORE PRECIOUS WHEN THEY COME." I BELIEVE THAT IS TRUE I WANTED ZAK SO BAD BEFORE WE GOT HIM, I THINK THE LORD KNOWS US, AND KNOWS WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT, I HAVE FAITH THAT IT WILL ALL WORK OUT, WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT. PLEASE KEEP US IN YOUR PRAYERS, ALSO IF YOU KNOW OF ANYONE PLEASE LET US KNOW, ALSO PRAY FROM THE BIRTH MOMS AS WELL, WHAT CHRIST LIKE PEOPLE THEY ARE!! ALSO I WANT TO THANK ALL THE MAN AND WOMEN THAT ARE FIGHTING FOR "OUR" FREEDOM, AND FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE THAT LOST THERE LOVE ONES ON 9-11-01 MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU, JOSH LOST HIS COUSIN 2 YEARS AGO IN MAY, HE WAS FIGHTING FOR OUR FREEDOM HE HAD A WIFE AND KIDS IT WAS SO HARD WATCHING THIS FAMILY, SO THANKS TO ALL YOU WHO FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM WE LOVE YOU!!!

Wow, that would be tough.. Are they still looking for a home? I have a cousin who I know would more then likely adopt them.. I think your right, Heavenly Father knows when the time is right- I agree with you that it would not have been fair to Zak~ your such a great mom..

I keep reading about the stories you hear and know that your hopes must soar before they crash because it's not right, or someone changes their mind.... I wonder if it isn't harder this way? Harder than it was when I was adopted and my mom and dad never knew the back story or who was being considered for them.

Just don't give up, you know eventually and at the right time and with the right child you will find your next little one. ;)

Emily- Don't think I am weird because I know that we don't eachother that well but I just love you so much! You just have the sweetest and kindest heart. I love reading your blog, I feel closer to you guys! I know the Lord definitely has a plan in store for you & your family. Good luck with everything & remember you're definitely in our prayers!!

E- the most important thing to do is keep God in the mix. We can never go wrong when he is the main and most important part of the dissisions we make in our lives.
Blessings come as we listen and obey. As both you and Josh know the answer is not always the one we want to hear.
But when the time comes and the blessing is granted O! how great will be the joy!
Love you three, you are always in my prayers.
