This is a rather late post, since my little girl Charity had a birthday on March 21st, and I intended to post thist then. All of a sudden we are in April, and there went the month of March! Regardless, I have to say a few words about Charity. She is a delight and a blessing and a gift. We were praying for her long before she came to us. We waited almost two years for this little girl and when the phone call came, it may very well have been one of the happiest days of my life...What can you say when God gives more than you ever thought you could ask for? Many people thought we were crazy to adopt when our youngest child was seven months at that time, but I could relate story after story of how our lives have been touched, and made better because of this little girl. She is special! I imagine God knitting her together inside of her mother's womb. I can guess that it was especially fun for Him, as he chose her eye and hair color to match our family perfectly. He probably laughed out loud as He fashioned her fat little fingers that curve in their own special way. I am sure that it was with extra tenderness that He gave her body one extra chromosome that would forever set her apart to be "one of those" people. He knew that "those" people are gifts and without doubt He chose our family to be a part of His amazing plan. I could just about weep with thankfulness for His goodness. Charity was made without error and without mistake. She was planned before time and she is a precious part of our family... Happy birthday little one, may you grow in strength and beauty. May the Lord continue to mold your little heart to love Him and to love others. May we celebrate many more birthdays in years to come!
