It does seem impossible some days when I look at Charlie to think that I am deserving of the blessing his life is. We get comments ALL the time about what an amazing baby he is, and then I realize he's OUR baby and my heart swells with awe and pride. <br /><br />And then to think of asking for anything even remotely close to this blessing a second time around, well it just seems overwhelming. But...I do want that, and I want Charlie to have siblings...<br /><br />Lovely post!<br /><br />MelbaMelbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16058896619253076094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712476185050900324.post-78260265396318048612009-10-26T15:04:36.591-04:002009-10-26T15:04:36.591-04:00Another beautiful post!

It's so heartfelt and will be a great treat for Ty as he grows up.<br /><br />I have a random question for you: how did you and Ben chose your agency? My husband and I are preparing ourselves to start the adoption journey, and I want to know how people chose their agancies. <br /><br />Thanks for everything!

I was wondering (and I feel sure you probably have) if you had heard the song called "From God's Arms, To My Arms, To Yours." It was originally written by Michael Mclean, but has been rerecorded by other artists, including Marie Osmond. If you go to youtube and search the song, you can watch Marie sing in amazingly. I am an adoptee myself (who is 3 years into a successful reunion from a private adoption) and the song is just amazing in expressing the sentiments of the birthmother, intentions of the adoptive mother, and the importance of both in the adoptee's life. Would love to hear your input (or anyone else who happens by this comment) if you have time. My email is jenniferedrew@yahoo.com<br /><br />So happy for you and your family!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228906539916536993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712476185050900324.post-2016151786510297092009-10-24T23:32:46.753-04:002009-10-24T23:32:46.753-04:00But the awe of looking at a son you did not birth,...But the awe of looking at a son you did not birth, knowing the great sacrifice paid by his first mom, and the tremendous thanksgiving in your heart for him, is love at its greatest height.<br /><br />Perfectly said...PERFECTLY thank youJust Believinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02209860792709070040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712476185050900324.post-72959141459400081582009-10-24T23:29:29.033-04:002009-10-24T23:29:29.033-04:00It is so wonderful to see Ty grow and develop.

We are absolutely amazed at how our lives crossed paths and he became our son.<br /><br />We are convinced that God will do the same for our next child (whenever that might happen) and we are so much more relaxed about any future adoptions. Just knowing that God worked in our lives is comfort enough to know that He can do it again...and again...and again...and again! <br /><br />I love reading your story.
