I have been so bad with blogging these days!
All I know is it’s an absolute must to tell the world how much I ADORED this month in Honduras.
God gave me a desire to adopt kids way back in high school, but not until this month was it confirmed for sure. I know now is not the right time, but when it is, I can’t think of a greater representation of the gospel than to adopt others into a family.
God also blessed me with one sweet little girl, Carolina. Oh how I wished she’d be the first girl I could adopt as my own. I thought about doing this almost every day, but to cut it short– I simply could not. So instead I had to savor every moment because the days were short, and like every month on the race, it flew by. I had to say goodbye.
I am in Nicaragua now. It’s been one day without sweet Carolina in my arms, and I kinda hate it. Yeah, it sucks.
Sweet Carolina,
I’ll never forget you, no.
Your laughs, your weird hums,
I love it all.
You learned to say my name,
what a special day.
Your drawn out “no”s and impulsive cries
Oh those watery brown eyes…
You’re not my child, but I wish you could be.
Please believe my promise that in my memory, you’ll never leave me.
love,
Jenny
