Adoption | Fast Forward

by | Apr 4, 2013 | Adoption | 16 comments

For my 13th birthday, I was given a pink radio. It could play cassette tapes. I was allowed to take it into the bathroom with me while I took a shower and  had a collection of Amy Grant tapes that kept that little pink radio busy.

I loved that you could fast forward and rewind. I would rewind songs over and over until I knew every word and every note.

Today, I wish I could hit pause.

Usually, I need to go over and over something to really understand what is happening and what I am feeling.

I have the best news ever to share. Ever.

There is a little guy who needs a home.

Over the next few weeks I hope to share more of the story of how we learned of this little guy, so please forgive me as I fast forward a little.

Mr. B and I had the priviledge of meeting him.

We decided to show the kids pictures.

We carefully explained that the little guy they were looking at may need a home and we might just be his family some day.

I think their faces say it all.

    I’m hoping all goes well that you’ll bring this little guy home real soon. I know there is a real need for children here in Az to have a safe, loving and warm home to call their own. It’s a blessing for me to see families such as yours who are able to give a child this opportunity.
