Our Journey

We are Home Sweet Home! And wow does it feel good to be here all together.

I made up a slide show of some of our favourite pictures of Faith's first 10 days and I set them to one of my favourite songs. This song is meant to be about a romantic relationship, but it really hits home with me in our journey to Faith because it has been such a long and broken road to having her join our family. But now we know that God led us down that road in order to lead us to her, our precious baby because he knew we needed her and she needed us.

(You will have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and pause the playlist music in order to hear the slideshow song.)

OK, I posted that and realized that it goes way too fast to be able to read what the first slide says, so I'll reprint it here for you:

The past 2 1/2 years have been a long, emotional journey for us, as we have prepared our hearts and home for the child who we knew would one day join our family. All along we have prayed that God would bring us the child who needed us and who we needed. Sometimes we wondered why it was taking so long, and if the obstacles we encountered meant that we should not adopt, but now we know that He had a dear sweet girl who was meant to be our daughter and we just had to wait for her.
