How your desires change!

"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor dust corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matt. 6:19




It has been amazing to me how when we are "called" to do something slowly as the  release of our will takes place to the will of God the desires of our heart  begin to change!


When we began this process  I was very content with my four big kids and we were looking forward to me graduating college, getting a dream job teaching, building our house on our land, and enjoying life. NEVER did I image I would have the desire to have a baby...not just another child but a baby!  I love babies but oh I remember all the work that came with those little bundles of sweetness. I have been long out of the baby stage-sleepless nights, crying, doctor visits often, diaper bags, diapers, formula, and all the other little goodies that come along with them!

As our adoption plans changed from an older child  to an infant my hearts desires have changed also. I am so content in my little house. The land is the farthest things from my mind! I can not wait to hold, smell, feed, bathe, and cuddle a new little one. It almost sounds weird to say it!  I am excited for my girls to experience this part of being a big sister to a new little one. I crave to hold our newest addition.  I can't wait to see if we get a boy or girl!
