The Time Has Come
We have waited 1,328 days for this day. Well, to be honest I have waited my whole life for this day. But tomorrow on November 15, 2016 Benjamin will officially become our Forever Son. I truly believe that God ordained from the beginning of time not only for Terry and I to be married but also for Ben to be our son. God has orchestrated every detail from the beginning until now, even the details we never noticed. My heart is overwhelmed by all of the details that flood through my mind that I can hardly contain it. It is so hard to put into words what I feel God has revealed to me through this journey. I don't know if anyone else notices but I know I have changed for the better. I have seen God's power through it all and I have witnessed His love and compassion in a way that I never knew existed before Ben entered my life. I look into his big brown eyes and I truly see God's love.
I'm not one to show my heart on my face, I share my heart through close friendships. So to look at me you may think this is just another average day. But please let me enlighten you that this day has taken a lifetime to travel to and a whole lot of heartache along the way. So tomorrow as you go about your regularly scheduled day know that for me tomorrow marks the proof that prayer avails much!!!
God has made us a family and no one can ever take that away. We have fought for this little boy. We chose him. He didn't just end up here, he was meant to be here. And I will strive to be the best mom I can be for him. I know I will fail, that's inevitable. But with God's guidance we will train him up to be the best he can be. We vow to raise him to love the Lord our God with all of his heart, soul and mind. And we trust God will guide him through his life in the path he should take.
BENJAMIN PAUL HEAD
Until next time I pray God keeps you safe and blesses you!
