		<description>I came upon this blog post while searching for something else, and I want to say thank you. God knows that I have a heavy heart today after paying the balance on yet another IVF attempt and He brought me to your words. I CAN take the next step.</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for this post. I know this in my head but it&#039;s nice to see it written down so beautifully. My husband and I went through infertility and now God has lead us to foster-adoption. We are very excited to meet the child God had in mind for us!</description>

		<description>Thank you for sharing! After almost a year I finally feel like I understand my children. Our youngest came at 6 weeks and I could piece together her life before she came. As for her brother he is 12 months older and had moved around a few times before coming to our house. I have tried to ask so many questions of birth parents, social workers, etc. Trying to see and understand his life the first 14 months. The hardest part for me is knowing if the things he does is because of his past or just a normal kid thing. I have a hard time not reading into his &quot;actions&quot; or behaviors and wondering why. I do believe that these children 100% are my children! Now if only everything was all final (foster/adopt can be a very long, hard, difficult, emotional process). My only comfort is God loves these children more than I do (hard to imagine) and he wants the best for them.</description>
