Where I Live

Where I live is surrounded by flowers.
Gardens planted while other seeds never took root.
Year after year my garden grew in the yard and in my heart, but not in my womb.
Until...God opened a window where the door had been closed.

Where I live is now home to two children born in Russia and my heart.
More beautiful than any flower I could have ever planted,
I live with some of God's greatest blessings.

  8. I always wanted a child or two born in my heart and it just didn't happen...but all my daughter talks about is adopting from "anywhere" and knowing her desires, she'll make it happen...children are such a blessing !!

  20. I read your post the other day and it stuck with me all day long today. What a wonderful thought -- that you have given the gift of a home and family to two children and they have given you so much in return. Beautiful post.
    :-)
