2010...yay
Yes he is holding a drum stick, before i snapped the pic he poked mommy in the eye with it. sorry mom. but wow has these six months flown by. he is more than 16 pounds by now, and guess what he had started to do. crawl, that's right he found out he can move. so we are starting to put things out of his reach. but i know he will still get into things. so i have been spending some time at the church and putting a lot more into job searching, and its crazy. have about 20 to 30 a week. on week 9 right now. but i have a few options i am looking at. have any of you ever herd of a live in home parent. well i found out that there are homes for children that need christian parents to raise the kids and create a family environment to live in. now this is cool. i think i have found something that hurts me so much that i have to do something about it. this house is for abused and neglected children from 0 to sometimes 21. i have looked all through the untied states and found a lot of positions open for houses looking for christian parents to live in the homes with about 8 kids in each house. i know that is a lot of kids but i can do it. at church i had about 30 kids in one room. 3erd and 4th graders. now that was fun. yeah i only had them for about an hour but i strive on that. i love kids. i found that out at my old church. and now i feel God saying here is a way you can help. i had watched a video of one of the places i am looking at and i cried when i herd of the stories that the kids told, some good and some bad. that's when i felt Gods tug saying this is it.
i always wanted to adopt kids in a bad situations. i have tried but with out any money that's hard to do. so this is a way that i can make a difference and give these kids a chance. love them and show a new life with Christ. now were i and looking is not in Ohio, but i have never felt this strong about something. it is amazing to see God work. i am just praying that this will work out and that we will make a difference.

If I lived in a house with 8 kids, I'm not sure they would see Christ-like character in me LOL. But God has gifted you differently...and I think it's awesome if that is where He is leading you. So you get paid to be their "parent"? Praying for open doors and God's direction in your life.
