Oh little ones, do you know that you are wanted, ached for, longed for?
Do you know that you will one day be ours?
I wonder where you are right now.
Are you in the womb of a woman whom you may never know?
Are you in a home or in a hospital?
Have you even been conceived?
Are you on another island in this country
or are you down the street from where we live?
Who is caring of you?
Are they doing a good job?
What are you feeling, little ones?
Are you afraid? Are you lonely?
Your Creator has formed you, knows you, and loves you.
He has never once left you alone.
There is a lot of room for you here
We are ready for you to mess with our schedules, our social life, our free time, our priorities
Even I, your mommy am ready for your presence to challenge my definition of being organized
We are ready to learn what the Lord has to teach us
as we figure out how to be your parents
We are ready for what you have to teach us
About love, grace, and patience
Who are you, little ones?
We have so many questions about you
There will come a day when you will be known by us
And we will find it difficult to imagine when we knew so little about you
Until then we will wait
We will pray
We will continue to speak truth over you
Wherever you are
That you are precious, loved, and wanted

Jeneeeee,
From the first time we met in Gam Pang Ngam I knew you loved children. Coleen and I are joining you and Andrey in praying for the child God has for you. What a lucky child that is to be so loved and wanted. May God grant you his favor.
