To all you moms out there. To everyone who has come along my side and are walking this journey with me. Thank you.

Sharing joy.
I feel this has been a journey that is not so much about me, but rather all about everyone else.
I love it.
There are many of my friends who are expecting and we are walking into motherhood together.
Friends who have been praying for a baby for years. Friends who planned to wait before starting a family. Friends who were told they would never conceive. Friends who have experienced life, joy, grief, sorrow, death.
We are in this together.

Foster parenting as a single parent isn't something most people hear of. "Parenting with two parents is hard enough," I've heard. Even before I started this journey I wasn't even sure being a single foster parent was allowed.
The support, love and encouragement I have received blows me away.

The little girl who prayed that if she treated her baby dolls with care they would wake up real babies is going to be a momma.
The little girl who wished a mother would leave her baby on my front door like was seen on movies is going to be a momma.
The little girl who wanted to start an orphanage in her own home is going to be a momma.
The little girl who turned into a young lady who had a heart and a passion for children ... is going to be a momma.

Dreams. Visions. Hopes. Prayers.
It is amazing what lavish fruits the Lord has blessed me with.
One step. One day. Never giving up. Never looking back.
Walking out a dream that only could come from the Lord.
