A Birthmother's Story...

This past Mother's Day I didn't only think about my mother, mother-in-law and grandmothers in my life, but I also had the wonderful thought of our birthmother!  This is someone whom we respect, love, and will always cherish.  Even though we have not met her and may never meet her, we will never forget the one who gave our baby LIFE!  We will never be able to pray for her enough, love her enough, or thank her enough for her sacrifice.  She will expreience loss and pain, as we experience overwhelming love and joy! We constantly pray that she will have peace and comfort during her time of loss.

This tells a beautiful story.  What an AMAZING God we serve! He knows the BIG picture when we can't even imagine the next step in our lives.  

Some of her points I would like to highlight again include:

 

On the TRUTH about Adoption:

"The biggest fallacy about adoption is that birthparents don't want their children."

 

About LOSS:

"My loss has been more than compensated for...the sweetness always swallows up the bitter."

 

On Birthparents and Adoptive Parents:

"We both sacrificed and we both put something on the alter and we answered each other's prayers."

 

We both (birthparents and adoptive parents) have to be receptive to God's call in order for God to be in control.  Have you let go and let God take over your life?  Have you given him everything?  Have you fully surrendered to God?  How will your story end?

 

We are very excited to continue to see our story unfold through God's will.

 

Praying for Our Happily Ever After...
