I've been reading your Smiles and Trials blog ever since you adopted Anna and Sveta and it's become almost like comfort food for me. Whenever I feel like the world has become too dark a place to bear, I read about the wonderful things that you and your husband have done for these children and it lights the way again. <br /><br />I've been reading this new one and I happened to click over to Reese's Rainbow to check things out, and I'm a little confused. What does it mean "transferred"? I confess to being woefully ignorant of how orphanages work. <br /><br />I don't have a blog but I would love it if you could drop me a line at my email address? it's justcloseby@gmail.com. I live in New Zealand :)<br /><br />Love to you and yours, and God bless you for making the world a better place to live in<br />-LucyLucy Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12684755356389342518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659120236085625313.post-5445944113377397152012-01-12T08:13:38.882-08:002012-01-12T08:13:38.882-08:00What beautiful children.

I know your choice is hard. I love Reid and another older boy William who sadly has 0.00 dollars in his fund...soon to change! I so wanted to adopt Reid but it was before they were posting which kids were available to single parents. I was so crushed when I found he was not on the available to single parents list. So, crushed that I ended up not adopting through RR entirely and went with another agency who places special needs children but does not list photos or biographies, had several countries with single programs, and waited for a referral to shield my heart. <br /><br />I'm so glad RR now has an available to single list to help not get attached to adorable photos and narratives. And I'm so glad I can donate to the children who I have come to love regardless of where they find a home.<br /><br />I'm sure it is part of His plan for Reid and my son too, because I do now have a wonder son who has been home for 2 years, who I would never have known about if I had not been so crushed to 'lose' Reid. Reid at the time felt like my destiny, we have the some birthday!<br /><br />oh, if only he was available to singles I'd have snatched him right up and he'd be home now! Sorry this comment is more about me than your wonderful journey. I just love him so much and know nothing about him and I'm sure lots of you can understand that. Thank you for noticing Reid, and all the other children too who are waiting!<br /><br />yetta (who always forgets my google password while at work!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659120236085625313.post-41053755782014095432012-01-11T10:24:28.669-08:002012-01-11T10:24:28.669-08:00A baby this time?
