Deanna, few people can remember what we say and fewer yet what we did, but almost everyone we come in contact with remembers how we made them feel. These precious children will remember forever feeling loved in your house. May God bless you even more!
thank you...I hope we will make some impact on them, even if it is being an ole married couple as one of them says...at least they won't see fighting and drunkeness, drugs or hatered here....
Deanne, This is such a wonderful adventure for you and your family. I think the Lord is blessing you with your being able to handle this. I certainly admire what you are doing. *4u
Did you know that the state says we can't make the kids go to church...I don't understand why they wouldn't want these kids to have a different life than the one they had before.....At least love flows through here and not anger....My hubby is frustrated at that, I have to keep telling him baby steps are what we first learned to walk with and baby steps is how we will get them involved....
God Bless you and your husband,
I hope he can stay with you longer,
and learn more about Jesus.
Hugs yvonne
They are talking about him living in a group home weekdays, and possibly coming to us on the weekends...Thats ok....its a step
What a blessing YOU are Deanna and your husband for taking in these children. God puts people like you in wonderful situations. I will pray for you and all the good work that you are doing. Love and blessings Chris
so cute...thanks.....I am astounished at how much patience I really do have...it wasn't there when I was raising my own.....It really must be true that age has a way of defining you....Many Blessings and wonderful prayers headed your way
Deanne, We need more of you & your family in this world. Thankyou for being there for this young boy :)
Thank you....I went to the grocery store after work (to feed these boys ha cha ching it goes) any way a young lady of about 24+ came in and within a minute 3 swear words came out of her mouth...It astounishes me that people don't even blink anymore...The only thing I could think of is if I were to have those kids with me, I would of probably came unglued on her....I wish people would carry a tape recorder around for a day or two and then play back what they say....Perhaps a small change would come over at how awful they sound on a daily basis....Thank you for your support and encouragement....
Deanna, you have a mighty big heart and I will be praying for you and the newbie.
thanks I love for prayers to be sent above on my behalf...Love your little fairy...Yes I honestly can say I do have a good heart, until someone crosses me that is....then I need all those prayers sent for me....gotta learn that thing called forgiveness and turning the other cheek more....baby steps I need to take....
My dear Camy May God Bless u. I have a dear friend who along with her husband & natural children kept foster children for more than 30 yrs. Her husband has passed away now & like me she has aged but so often she hears from many of those they helped along the way. They all use to fill up more than one pew at church. She would tell you of yrs of ups & downs, successes & failures but she would do it all again. Love & prayers for U Lillian
Well I can honestly say I am feeling the Lords Love a little more each day and am so glad that I have him with me...
