As our 3rd Gotcha Day anniversary with Lilli rapidly approaches, I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on my journey as an adoptive parent. I think adoption chose me as much as I chose the path to motherhood.
I remember thinking about adoption when I was a teenager. I know that God had my course to being a Mommy already plotted out. I look at my infertility differently now. I have no regrets. The pain has vanished.
When I look into Lilli's beautiful, brown, almond-shaped eyes, I can't imagine another child as my daughter. I don’t see a nationality or race, just “my girl”. Like a puzzle, our family fits together. Perfectly.
I thank God for all of my unanswered prayers. She's my miracle. I am so thankful that God trusted me enough to "mother" this magnificent, chosen child. What a gift!!Wishing everyone a blessed Tuesday! ((HUGS))
