Counting down, Fretfully

We are within the last week of being a full time family to our little guy.  It has been a year.  A year of firsts, a year of celebrations, a year of traditions we have introduced him to, a year of trips together, a year of day in and day out living.  And it comes down to the final week.  How can this be?  How can we willingly and obediently pack him up and send him on his way?  So many foster families have done this, and do this all the time.  But I'm not sure I can.

I really don't understand why God has called us to do this.  We weren't made for this.  This is for someone else.  But here we are.  I hope I never forget every thing he has done that has made me laugh, made my heart love him, or made me feel like a new mom again.  We will continue to foster, somehow, but there will never be another like him.  Three more nights now.  May time stand still....

Praying for all of you. I sure don't have any words of wisdom but praying that the Lord blesses you for the love you have poured onto this little one.

I started dating when I was incredibly young. I was 19 years old when we first began to show interest in Ron. Thern was 25 and basically ready for marriage. I was ready to explore college life. Neither of us were Christians, but both of us enjoyed our friendship and what became a romantic relationship—except it was not a good or healthy relationship because Ron was having an affair with my friend Ela. My immaturity and desire to explore didn’t match his readiness for marriage. We tried twice at engagement and broke it off twice. Both heartbroken by sin and what seemed like the end, we parted ways.

After that second engagement to Ron ended, I went to a friend’s of ine who is from west africa, heard the Voddo love spell they possess in africa for what might have been helpful to me, and submitted my time to contact Dr Itua from west africa. whom I tell my marraige with Ron and he promised to help me in which he askk me for names / pictures then after 3 days of Dr Itua love spell, Ron call me and ask me to reconcile with him for a better chance to make things right for our lifetime marraige so that how My life was forever changed. I still loved Ron and he loves me more, but I knew that now we could never be together if not for the help of Dr Itua love spell. Ron and I are now have 4 wonderful kids all grown up, I thank Dr Itua Love spell. So I will advise anyone here to contact Dr Itua if you are having Rolling coster relationship or marraige because Dr Itua can help you with love spell to stable your marraige or relationship without any side effect.
Here is Dr Itua Contact details,
