Maybe even multiple pairs. Even today, if our lil' one gets s.t.u.c.k. I pull out the earplugs and we snuggle, albeit loudly. It's just the start. This birthing is wrought with its own kind of pain and beauty. God bless & strengthen all of you!M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09481836806275838283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626820356307919755.post-13970220210744359702013-06-18T08:16:27.550-07:002013-06-18T08:16:27.550-07:00Reading this reminds me of what a joyful day it is...Reading this reminds me of what a joyful day it is for the adoptive parents, and the start of a beautiful new beginning into a family life for the kids, but at the same time how at the point of placement, it is a fresh trauma for the kiddos. I knew my kids would have struggles from their past, but it's that other part I underestimated, how utterly painful and traumatic it would be just to move into my home. They are such little treasures, praying for you all in your travels and transitions.
