Sometimes, when I look at him sleeping in his crib, I am STILL in AWE that he is here. I hold him in my arms and breathe him in and thank God for giving me the opportunity to love him and to have him in our home. When I see his tiny socks or diapers laying around I remember how good God is. In my heart I truly WANT to believe that God himself handed this baby to us. But I can't wrap my head around that. So for now...I am planning on handing my sweet baby boy over to his biological mother this summer. I am trying to prepare myself {and my family} for Sprout leaving us. I would rather be prepared then have the rug pulled out from under us. Does this mean my faith is gone?? No. I HAVE TO do this. I need to mentally tell myself EVERYDAY that he could leave. This baby boy has been slowly weaving himself into our family from the minute we found out about him a month before he was even born. He will leave an enormous hole when he leaves. But I know that God will redeem Sprout's time here. I don't know when or how but I trust that He will. His plan is bigger than ours is.
Some crazy news I can't share on this blog can be found over here.
