Our Father in Heaven said, it wouldn't be easy but it will be worth it. I fall back on those words when trials come upon me and my family. One day Daniel will be able to look back and maybe understand what hand he and his brother and sisters have been dealt. Why things happen only our Father in Heaven knows. I'm sure he isn't happy when we make mistakes on this earth. As a mom I know he isn't happy. But, as mortals we make mistakes and then we have to pay the consequences of our mistakes. Daniels mom and dad are paying the ultimate price, the loss of their little ones. I can't imagine what that is like. I only know through their mistakes you my daughter have been blessed. You know in your heart now you don't have to give birth to a child to be their mother. Your children will soon understand your selfless heart and your desire to be their mom. Your heart is full and soon you will be able to mend their broken hearts and give them their life back. I can hardly wait to see you with these 4 amazing spirits along with your sweetheart kneeling across the alter and becoming an eternal family. My heart runneth over with joy and gladness......I can hardly wait to see you Rachel running your children to scouts, soccer games, and hopefully music lessons!

Mine are tears of joy for these special little children! I can't imagine feeling such responibility at the tender age of 7. They are so lucky, even if the had a really rough start. Tears are ok!

Adam started crying when I was reading it. That made me start to cry. At least we're not alone in our tears. My next post will be happy, I promise. Yeah. Adam started crying when I was reading it.

I can't wait until Daniel can REALLY understand what being a boy is like. You are not suppose to make me cry so early in the morning.
