Answered Prayers

Two years ago on April the18th , the most precious little girl was placed in my arms. I had waited for this moment for over two years and couldn't believe it when it finally happened. I had played out the scene over and over in my mind so many times but nothing compared with actually holding this sweet angel and feeling her face next to mine. She didn't cry and showed no fear, it was as if she had also been waiting for this moment too.
Within minutes she was laughing and playing with us and it's been that way ever since.

Here's our sweet angel playing in the waves with her daddy and...........



blowing bubbles on the beach with me over our spring break.
There were lots of times of uncertainty during our long wait and one thing that I had to keep reminding myself was that God's timing was and is always perfect. I also had to remember that His delay is not His denial, it's just all part of His plan. I hope that this will bring some comfort to those who are still waiting. It is so worth every second that you wait.
Until next time......................
I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him.
