their dad.

this was a fun moment.  a moment i'm so grateful for.  i'm thankful

for a husband that is willing to walk in obedience to his Father--even

if that looks crazy or hard in this life.  i know i haven't shared the whole

story, but when we felt called to be open to adoption again while i was

on my ladies' mission trip in february, we were bound by certain requirements.

although we asked repeatedly that our family be allowed to be open to God's will

on paper regarding gender, age, health and number of children....we were required

on paper as eligible to adopt one healthy child age 36 months or younger.

i love that when i called matt and basically blew every 'requirement' listed there

that he didn't miss a beat.  although we didn't know how this was all going to work,

he fully trusted with me.  he, too, has been our boys' father from february 4th, 2011.

  

i'm grateful for his wisdom, balance, selflessness & devotion.

i'm grateful he is my husband & their dad.
