Amazing News....

My blog was posted all over the place, by people sharing about Shiloh.......well I got a message on FB that she has a family coming for her!!!!!!!!!!!!!    Seems she was hosted by an American family sometime last year and they are working on adopting her!  the country the girls are from does allow "hosting programs" that are wonderful for the children and young teens, many kids end up being adopted through that program! 

So one of the volunteers working with the hosting program, contacted me and we made sure it was the same girl.  They have a beautiful picture of her that looks so much happier than the ones I have!  Tomorrow the director will be told about us and he or she will give our info to the adopting family.  We are just hoping and praying that they will chose to contact us.  I have no idea where they are in the process of adoption or if they are fully funded but I hope to help if they need any help.  As you can imagine I am on pins and needles hoping they will contact us!   But even if they chose not to, I am so very very happy that this little girl will soon have a family!  but at this point I feel like a stalker lol  I really hope to hear from the family!

When we adopted Selah, I had decided I wanted to do something for Shiloh, I felt we had a responsibility as her sister's family to help her out although all ties were legally cut.  But we were busy over the summer......then the accident......  Every time I thought of Shiloh, I felt very guilty.  I thought we were her "only" hope and here we were doing nothing......BUT GOD  had other servants who were busy about the kingdom's business!  It's a blessing to know someone, many someones were working on the behalf of this small girl!   He had a ministry I'd never heard of, that was working actively to find this child a family!  How good our God is!!!!

I've just been in AWE all day long, fighting happy tears, looking at her new picture, seeing Selah in her face even more so.....   Thank you God for putting the lonely in families.....Thank you for watching over this little girl that we felt so much responsibility for...and who we couldn't help. 

My life...this journey....it's wilder than anything you could ever make up!   Who would have dreamed last night, I'd wake up to this today!!!!!   God is good!
