Six Months Ago




Referral picture, Meeting Grace, Today (sorry, the pictures aren't in order)
Six months ago our lifes changed. We walked into a hotel conference room and met our youngest daughter. She was not happy to see us, just the opposite. Everything she ever knew was about to change. I often ask her if she likes it better here. Of course she doesn't answer and or even understand what I am asking. She was in a foster home and well taken care of. Her story is the opposite of Julia's. There was never a question about where Julia would receive better care. Grace would not have remained in that foster home, foster parents usually are not allowed to adopt. We are so thankful we were chosen to parent this child. Even when she was given to us crying and screaming we knew that one day she would come to love us. God doesn't make mistakes, he knew that this little girl was meant to be a Braxton.
