I can't sleep, so I thought I would let you all know what is happening with our first daughter.
Today, it was decided that our 2 year old with go for her first overnight on Thursday 4/17 with her bio-parents. She will stay 4 nights and return to us Monday morning. Then she will be with us until Tuesday for her regular visit, return to us that night, and again leave on Thursday 4/24, but this time for good.
We didn't expect for the transition to be this quick but a little more spaced out. Because of this, M will not be at church any further. Last Sunday was her last night to be with all of you. However, we would like to have a little celebration of her time with us and a send off on 4/23 (Wednesday-time to be announced later) at our home for those that would like to say goodbye. We also want to have the kiddos work on the pinata that we got for her Dec. birthday that we didn't use at her birthday party.
Please pray for her as we talk to her about what is about to happen. Also, please pray for her and her bio-family as they do this quick transition as we all can agree on wanting this to be her last move ever. We pray for a bright, beautiful, and peaceful future. We pray that God will quiet our fears and anxieties as well as hers. We pray for Ellie as she loses her big sister.
Thanks... |
