If you had asked me many years ago, I would have assured you I would have had a house full of children.  A dream that remained until a little over 13 years ago.

That dream ended when I married my husband.  I married him knowing full well he could no longer father children, without an expensive surgery.   I concluded it didn't really matter.  I knew he was a godly man who loved The Lord.  To me, it was an easy trade off.  I had much rather have a godly man than a house full of kids with an unglodly man.  I knew God had chosen him for me.


Little did I know, God's plan was completely different and better than mine.

In October 2005,  we brought home our daughter.  She is a picture of God's faithfulness to me.
When I look at her, I am reminded of God's love for me.  You see, He adopted me.

Every year Mother's Day gets a little sweeter.

This is so much better than my plan...
