Nyquil, mucinex and chicken noodle soup. And cough drops, of course!

I fostered a newborn last year - picked him up at the hospital at 3 days old and had him for 10 months. We loved him and held him and never let him cry - but I wonder if it was enough?? He's with his parents now. I'll always pray for him!

I also gave my baby girl up for adoption 23 years ago. Closed adoption, as they mostly were back then. I wonder if she was held enough, or comforted - or does she still have a hole in her heart? I will probably never know. I'm still praying for her too, so food issues will be added to the list!

I also wonder if our "holes" help us find Jesus. I think that there are so many things that we all do - adoptee or not - that God allows to happen to draw us to Him. I have to get to a place of "I can't do this by myself!" and let the Lord in to change my heart. Thanks for the reminder today to trust Him. =)
