Pinkify


In the matter of a few days, I went from a momma of 2, to 4.  Splashing a bit of pink in our lives, two little princesses came into our home.   And I am beautifully wrecked.

A dream into reality ... waiting for God's perfect timing ... And His perfect plan.  We are now a foster family, opening our home and lives to share God's love with precious little ones.

I knew I would love it.  We all knew.  But little did we know how much.  This is it.  Pure joy.

1 am phone calls to open our home.  Rocking tiny ones whose lives have been turned upside down.    Wiping tears and holding close when brown eyes ask "Sarah, can you find my mommy?"  Cleaning stairs when an explosive diaper and our bumpy stairs game collided.    A small hand slipped in mine.   Pink bows.

My hubby opened up HIs Bible, reading and chuckling aloud to me the morning after our pink invasion.  Reading ...

"Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it."  - Hebrews 13:2

Without a doubt, we have two precious pink angels twirling in our home.

WOW! Yes, a dream into reality! (I have been away from my own blog forever and I'm so glad I decided to stop by your site today!) ... I can totally relate to that prayer for pink just knowing that I'd love it given the opportunity and I'm so, so, so happy for you! (still my dream and no sight of reality)--but what a blessing that God has been faithful in placing some perfect pink in your lives!! I have no doubt that you all will be blessed AND be a blessing in your new family of 6.

How wonderful! We had a foster brother and sister when I was in high school. They were/ are forever our brother and sister!

Through the wonders of modern technology, we are reunited after many years as if time never passed.

Blessings and grace upon grace!

Sarah! I am so woefully behind on reading your blog. What exciting news! I'm glad you are enjoying some pink in your life. I'm praying too. . . joy and sorrow mix together in any foster/adoption story.

Love love love! I'm so excited for your journey and thrilled at your heart for these angels....for once upon a time, as a curly headed toddler this was my life. Your love, no matter the time it is there, is precious to their hearts.

Love, love, love! I'm so excited for your foster journey and whatever path God is taking your family down! So thrilled for the precious pink that has come to bless your home. Once upon a time, as a curly blonde haired toddler, this was my life so I know first hand just how much your heartfelt love and comfort means!
