Adoption talk at 4-H meeting
Taylor is a member of 4-H. She enjoys herself as she participates in the monthly meeting and projects. She was given the opportunity to share with her peers her experience with adoption. Taylor knows firsthand what it means to adopt. She has prayed for our family to adopt for years. Little did she know we were called as a family to adopt not only one but TWO siblings for her to love on. Taylor was thrilled when we chose Marcus (Timur). She has been involved from the VERY beginning. She began telling EVERYONE that we were going to adopt a little boy with Down Syndrome from Ukraine. She has always been great about sharing our mission and passion to rescue those who can not help themselves. She did a beautiful job with sharing her personal experience with adopting BOTH Marcus and Macey. She told how she has always wanted a little sister and God gave her Macey, at the last minute. She told about her travels, the orphanage and ALL the other children left behind, the food we ate and the people we met. This was the best field trip and mission trip any home schooler would love to have been on. I am so proud of Taylor for speaking to her peers and sharing from her heart about HER part in the adoption of her new siblings. She continues to be a light in this dark world.
PRAISE GOD!
