Tonycpa and Linda Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 After eight years of hoping and trying and waiting to become parents, a Dallas/Ft. Worth couple happened to catch Adoption Stories on the Discovery channel, where they learned of Abrazo. A week ago, they sent in their application paperwork, hoping to attend this week's orientation, but God had other plans for them and the best possible reason for them to spend the weekend at home-- with their week-old, 8 lb., 13 oz. baby boy! Congratulations to our newest family! (Next time, come join us for orientation, first, and see what you missed, just so you know what the fuss is all about.) 35008[/snapback] this story put tears to my eyes....... How wonderful..... so I guess thre is hope for us. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeddyRae Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Depending on the drive time and when they actually left, they just might be in Dallas right now. So maybe by 5:00 or 6:00........ You guys are causing me stress with all this posting over here, I keep rocking back and forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stork Central Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Perhaps the process of adoption is not unlike a quilt; the pieces sometimes may not seem to fit initially but in time the pattern comes together in ways that the quilter may not have originally imagined, and the result is surely where love resides! So it was for our newest family, members of Connecting the Tots, 1/06. Their profile spoke of having met after God asked them both to step out of their comfort zones that day, and the adoption journey truly requires the same of both our birthparents and our adopting families. "Only the Lord could have made such a perfect match in so short of a time," their profile read. (Truer words were never spoken!) May their tiny new daughter be the beneficiary of both families' faith and love--and the legendary wit of both her fathers; he who conceived and he who adopted-- because knowing the four parents who now share this angel, the quilt that covers her will undoubtedly be stitched with care, trimmed with humor and strong as muslin.
