For those of us that cannot bear children, whose wombs are barren, and can only dream what it would be like to be pregnant--we know that without birthmoms that choose LIFE for their baby and choose adoption--we would not experience the joys of motherhood.

...before choir practice tonight, our minister's wife told us about someone that has a 1:00 p.m. appt. on Friday for an abortion. She has a 10-year-old daughter, no money, and cannot (will not) consider another option--the option of adoption. A counselor spent an hour yesterday, trying to persuade her to consider adoption, but it seemed to no avail. All these feelings of sadness simply washed over me. I wished so very much that I could have taken our 2 adopted children to her--to show her what precious gifts they are to us. We're praying that she will have a change of heart--she is two and a half months along. I don't know what else to do. I am frustratrated and saddened. If she only knew how we as adoptive couples need birthmoms who choose adoption.

I thank God for the children that we have been blessed to raise in the nurture and admonition of His Word and He gives me peace...
