Like most intentional mothers, I spend an incredible amount of time questioning my parenting.
Discipline, priorities, personalities, activities, free time, clothing choices, character building opportunities, strengths, weaknesses, friendships, nutrition, and education are just a few topics that I evaluate on a daily basis.
Every once in a blue moon, moments unfold before my eyes, and I receive the affirmation so desperately needed.
I experienced one of those moments on Sunday.
There are still countless questions in my mind about how this open adoption is going to unfold. I only hope and pray that Jax understands that every decision is made with his best interest in mind.
He will always know that he is adopted. He will always know that I loved his birthmother, and that I still grieve her loss daily. His birth family will always be given the opportunity to choose the relationship that they will have with him. He will always have the chance to love these two special girls. He will one day recognize the significance of this photo. In my opinion, God is already speaking the truth into his heart. Some connections are just too evident to deny.
Thank you God for this precious moment. I needed it.
My cup runneth over.. ♥
