A Blog Just For Our Hearts


I began praying for my husband long before I knew him and even began writing him letters before knowing him. I want to do the same for all the children who we do not know yet. We began the journey together 10 years ago as we started dating, always talking about the possibility of adoption and now it is becoming real. I want to use this blog as a place to cry out to the Lord during tough times that I will encounter and a place to remember my thoughts and precious memories of the children that will be brought into our home. We are well into the Foster/Adoption application process and should be on a list to begin accepting children by the New Year. We know this is going to be a rough journey, but are so thankful for the calling the Lord has put on our hearts to love every child unconditionally that is put before us AND be forever thankful when the children who get to remain with us for a lifetime are offered to us. Each child will FOREVER be a "Heart" in our life whether we will get to call them our own or return them to their biological family. Thank you for your prayers and support along this journey we are just beginning! It is our prayer that we remember EVERY "Heart" needs to be given to the Lord before, during and after our time together as a family.

This is my desire to honor You
Lord with all my heart, I worship You
All that is within me, I give You praise
All that I adore, is in You

Lord I give You my "heart"
I give You my soul
I live for You alone
Every breath that I take
Every moment I'm awake
Lord have Your way in me
