Even though I don't know any of y'all in Texas, these adoptive stories have stolen my heart. Let me tell you, this devastation in Haiti has completely opened my eyes and changed me! I cried when Amos came home and I cried when Debra said Ronel didn't. I took initiative to email the people from Kristen's post. At least I've tried my part. Just hoping that someone actually reads it! :)
Oh ... I am crying. That precious child under those covers sobbing ... he wants his family. Praying. People can't always understand how you can fall in love instantly with a child you know will be yours. It's just a God thing. Our two girls are adopted ... our youngest had kidney cancer at just 13 months old ... she's 9 today. I had someone recently ask me when we found out she had cancer ... did we regret adopting her. I couldn't believe they could ask such a thing ... they just didn't understand. She's my baby.
I know that sweet family is hurting ... they've already fallen in love with him.
So praying for this. Isn't there a verse in Proverbs that says God holds the heart of a king in his hands and directs like water..? Going to go look it up...but I'm praying that God will do a work in the hearts of those in authority and and that this precious boy will come HOME!
Thank you for linking this Amanda! Keep spreading the word and keep praying everyone! It is awesome how God is bringing the online community to their knees in prayer for this little boy and his family! Bring him home Lord! Bring him home!
Besides a baby, what pregnant women get in return for surrendering their waistlines is nine months of thick, glorious hair. It’s a beautiful thing. However, when Baby is just a few months old (about the time Mommy is seeing hints of her returning waistline) it all falls out. Soon her face is framed by the re-growth—lovely inch-long hairs called baby bangs. This blog is named for that charming little phenomenon.

That leaves me in tears. I'm praying for him and Debra's family.
Oh Amanda, doesn't it just break your heart! Lord Jesus, please let Ronel come home to the Parkers'.
Oh how I am praying! Thanks for posting!
