?Hope waits but does not sit.  It strains with eager anticipation to see what maybe coming on the horizon.  Hope does not pacify; it does not make us docile and mediocre.  Instead, it draws us to greater risk and perseverance.

 

Dan Allender

"Endurance is not just the ability to bear a hard thing, but to turn it into glory."

William Barclay


Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!
