I am waiting right now to have 2 new children brought to us. It will be a 9 month old boy, and a 3 yr old girl. It is 8:30 pm, and I am not sure when they will be here, but it will be tonight b/c they have nowhere else to go. I will post more as soon as I get a chance tomorrow...haha I have already declaired tomorrow a non school day, just b/c I know I don't have the energy to deal with all that, and carry SIX kids in the car to take them, plus just dealing with 6 doing the whole school routine. I already was thinking about it b/c it is Rachel's b-day, and we have never not been together on someone's b-day, so I guess it will all work out.
They are coming with only the clothes on their back. They have had a long day. We got the call while we were in Jump Zone, and I don't think my house could have been any more unprepaired...haha but my awesome family all kicked in, and it is decent now!
PLEASE PRAY FOR US, but more importantly for these kids as they deal with what all they have been through. I was told that there wasn't any actual physical abuse involved that they know of...or at least that wasn't the reason for removal. I have no idea how long they will be here.
UMMM does this mean no more phone calls to me because you are LONELY!?! Gosh, can't wait to hear about the kids. Just think.. WHERE would they be without you and Clay? God bless you two for doing this for these kids.
ReplyDeletei have no idea how you are going to do all that! 9 months and the baby you have already! i will pray! :)
ReplyDeletethinking about you guys and will definitely be praying too!
ReplyDeleteOH, you are so amazing to open your home. These children need your family so much if all they have is the clothing on their back. You really are an inspiration. Prayers are heading your way. Good luck - amazing mom!
ReplyDeletePraying! Let us know if there is anything you need! Of course, I have no little ones, so......
ReplyDeletePraying for a good Birthday celebration today and that the new little ones adjust quickly. You are going to have your hands full, but that also means a full heart!
ReplyDeleteAnd Happy Birthday Rachel!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Poor children. I am so glad they are coming to your loving home. Keep us updated... when you have time. Is there anything I can do to help you out?
