Adding Three New Children To Our Mix!

Today I got the call! I answered the call with excitement yet a bit of hesitancy.  Today they actually called me regarding two different sibling groups and gave me the choice to pick one -- if we wanted to do this.  They described each ones personality at least as much as they know about them.  How can you just pick one sibling group. One was two older boys 13 and 16.  They have three other sisters that were placed in a home without them. The next one I was more drawn to.  It must be Jesus that made me connect right away.  I picked the sibling group of 3.  1 girl and 2 boys.  6, 10 and 14.  They said they would call me back and let me know if this is going to happen.  So right now this is maybe 80% gonna happen.

They told me the 10 yr old boy has behavior problems.  They asked me how I felt about that.  I am okay.  He will be okay.  I know I cannot save the world but I can sure try to make a differance in a childs life.  All the while they described him I just kept thinking "he is hurting boy".  We will do what we can.  We will get him back in school, take him to our church, give him love and attention, a bed to sleep in and food in his stomach, chores, responsiblity, accountability and structure.  Sometime just those things help cure a hurting child.  I am praying this is the recipie for all these children.

I also want to lift up the two boys 13 and 16 year olds who have been seperated from their sisters.  Lord please protect them and give them peace!!! The Lord loves his children and I know he is looking out for them.

So folks!!! Thats about it!! I will let you know.  It is in the Lords hands and what ever he has for us we are willing.
