The Journey of My Angel
 
"A Long Road Home" 
 
In August of 1983 on the morning of the 25th a beautiful "Baby Girl" was born.  From that day until this, my life has never been the same.
 
Our journey is one of struggle, sadness, emptiness, pain, and a certain amount of grief. However the struggle I still had the Lord with me. And if it had not been for the Lord, I would'nt be here today to tell you this Story... The Journey of My Angel!
 
I would like to say Thanks to the Lord, I am truly blessed!  I have shared my testimony with my church family, King Solomon Missionary Baptist Church in Louisville KY. 
 
 I  have also shared my story with many other woman who have been and are struggling with the same issue.  And I always leave them with a message of hope and courage.
 
Because of my journey and it's successful outcome, The Lord has allowed me to be an inspiration to others. Because "God Did It!"
 
So as you journey through the pages of our life we hope that you will find courage, comfort, and the strength to complete your own journey.
 
Remember God will be with you every step of the way, He will guide you through anything that you need Him to...You just gotta believe!  He will never put more on you than you can bear.
 
Be thankful, Be Blessed, and God Did It
 
My prayers go out to you and your family,

 If You Were Adopted


Kids who were adopted are no different than other kids. But if you were adopted, you may have a little more on your mind than your friends. Sometimes, learning you were adopted may make it hard for you to pay attention in school.

Many kids who were adopted wonder about their birth parents and why they didn't keep them. They may wonder where they came from and what nationalities they are. They might wonder if they look like their birth parents and what their relatives are like. They might think about this stuff a lot, even if they really love their adoptive parents.

You might have questions if your family includes kids who were adopted and kids who weren't. Unfortunately, someone might say that you are not your parents' "real" kid, but that is not true. Adoption makes you a real son or daughter. Again, being able to talk about your feelings can help.

If you're adopted, you might sometimes feel like no one knows what it feels like. But you're not alone. Just in the United States, there are 1.6 million adopted kids!
 
Keep The Faith...You Are Not Alone!!!

 

 
Can I relax and have some fun...can I enjoy
These precious gifts God has given?

If I try to give up the struggle what will I find?
Fear that I'm doing it all wrong
Fear that I can't do it right
Fear that my family doesn't really want me
Fear that I will be ashamed, and rightly so
Fear that I have become my mother...oh, NO!!!

 The Struggle...

 

When I struggle I try too hard
When I try I can't break through
To feel the love and caring that abound.

Just look around
See the flowers, the plants, the birds,
Feel my skin, my legs, my feet
I am still here yet not connected
That's sad and hard to imagine as anything but to be rejected.

Can I let go, can I "give in"?  
When my days are disconnected to no end?


Can I relax and have some fun...can I enjoy
These precious gifts God has given?

If I try to give up the struggle what will I find?
Fear that I'm doing it all wrong
Fear that I can't do it right
Fear that my family doesn't really want me
Fear that I will be ashamed, and rightly so
Fear that I have become my mother...oh, NO!!!

If I relax and let go I might feel free

If I relax and let go I might feel free
Light hearted and happy
I might miss a chance to discipline

I might have more messes to clean up
I might have to do more myself but with less "lessons".

If I give up the struggle I think I will find
A mother that is loved and worshiped and kind
A child who truly is mine
A Gift from God...Truly One of A Kind
 
So cherish the Gifts that God gives you;
Cherish every day and be kind, too.
 
Remember to pray and trust in God, because you are blessed so don't give up!
 
The Struggle is Over, When you realize that God is teally in control. 
The road won't be easy and the journey isn't always fun, but knowing that you've done your best will give you peace.
 
All things work together for the good of them that love the Lord. 
 

  My Gift

When I found out the news of being a new mother, I was so nervous, But I knew we would love each other.
