What to say?

Wow!  Where to start?  What to say?  I’m overwhelmed.

My babies are home.  After two years of praying, crying, and begging for our children they are tucked in safe and sound for their afternoon naps.  It’s surreal.  I keep looking at them walking around this house, and hearing their little voices having to remind myself that this is real.  They are here.

But you know what else I’m overwhelmed by?  How much love and support others have shown us from the beginning of this journey to even now that our children are home.  I can hardly talk about it or even think about it without crying.  This is all so much more than I deserve.  I do not deserve these children.  I do not deserve this love.  God has provided so many people that have sent encouraging words through text, emails, instagram comments, facebook messages that have truly helped me to journey through this process.  The hugs, prayers, cards, gifts, and meals are all so much more than we deserve.  I do not even know how to begin to thank so many people in our lives for all that we have experienced.  The words thank you seem so insufficient.  And I feel as if I can’t even get to every single person that has been a part of this to say thank you.

What an amazing blessing to see others bear my burden.  My prayer is that I too can bear the burden of my brothers and sisters in Christ (Galatians 6:2-5).
