In September of 2012, I moved my writing home to a new space titled Fostering Love at Home. I'd love for you to join me there!
I love this weekly feature from The Gypsy Mama. For five minutes we write, unscripted, unedited. We just write. Then we link up and build community! Today’s topic is Together.
Go.
I woke up very early this morning (at least according to my standards!). I had an overwhelming sense to pray for my children.
You see, I’ve written about them before. Even in five minutes!
But, here’s the thing. I don’t know them. I don’t know their faces. I don’t know how old they are.
We are still waiting to meet our children. The timing of adoption is generally so unknown.
Thankfully our waiting is hopefully coming to an end. At this point, our children could come home any day. That means it could be tomorrow or in three months. We just don’t know.
For right now, I dream. I dream of the day that we will finally be together. The day I will finally be able to hug them and tuck them in at night.
I hope and pray that we are together soon!





I love seeing all the different responses to the prompt “together.” This is a special one! God bless your soon coming together time!
It was very interesting to see how every went with the word and made it their own. It is always a joy to read all the different posts!
Thanks for stopping by here!
Oh, I pray you are together soon! That journey of waiting is the hardest one, I am certain.
Beautiful 5 minute write!
and thank you. for praying for them now. for loving them now. what a blessing!
Thanks Nikki!!!
You words bless me. I pray today that you time of being together comes quickly. I can’t imagine the longing and the suspense and frustration of waiting. God will bless you tremendously for the wait and for caring after His dear precious ones. Blessings and thankful to be here today.
So thankful that you were blessed. So thankful that you stopped by!
I’m saying a prayer for you right now. Thank you for writing about this and sharing your experiences. It’s very inspirational and has given me much to think about!
Thank you so much for your prayers!!!
It will be such a sweet joy to see you together. You have no idea what kind of an impact God is using Michael to make. So grateful for you and your ministry.
It should read:
“You have no idea what kind of an impact God is using you and Michael to make.”
Sorry…I am not quite used to typing on the iPad.
Thank you Indy! I cannot wait to see!
Praying again for your family to be together, Ashley!
These thoughts are just beautiful here… it pierces my soul deep. To think of you praying for those who are unwanted by others, yet you are willing to open up your heart wide to receive them and bless them and give them new destinies, by His grace…
True religion in God’s eyes… beautiful. Believing with you, in this moment to be united with those you love already, and do not yet know, knowing God does.
