Praying for Birthmom
What a wonderful, crazy, exciting week! I got a call on Monday from a friend of mine, and her best friend is an attorney that specializes in adoptions. We discussed about mine and Justin's plan to add to our family, and she asked me to call her attorney friend. I did..... This attorney has been approached this past week about a girl who is 7 months pregnant, and the girl wants to place the child for adoption. So, the attorney asked me to complete a life book, I did and got it to her yesterday, and she meet with the girl today to see what her intentions were, and share our book! I do not want to disclose to much information about the biological mother, and father but I will say she wants to look at a group of life books, narrow it down to a couple of families, and then visit with them in the next couple of weeks! So, my prayer request is that this birth mom will feel loved, have peace about her decision, and feel God's presence in this situation. I told the attorney today, now that I have been involved with and mentoring young girls through a crisis pregnancy outreach, I have a new understanding of the decisions these young women face. I am happy that this person is taking the time, and really putting thought in to her adoption plan. She will have so much more peace because she is doing this, and the adoptive family should feel more secure about her final decision, and the fact that she will follow through with her plan because of the work she is doing now. I feel good about this situation, and know that if it is suppose to work out for my family it will, God is guiding all of us. Please lift this girl up in prayer during the weeks ahead! I will keep you posted as we learn more........
