Blessed!

I just wanted to say it is truly a blessing being part of the RR family. This group of people have time after time shown endless support, comfort and celebration for others in process or just going through difficult times in life. It is great being able to reach out during this adoption process to others that UNDERSTAND the difficulties, UNDERSTAND the triumphs, UNDERSTAND the fears, UNDERSTAND the tears, UNDERSTAND the joys, and UNDERSTAND why!!! Thank you to the RR community for being there and understanding!

We were also blessed this week by 2 donations... one through our family sponsorship fund (RR) and the other was handed directly to Tim. Both were a surprise and both were a blessing! The financial support is wonderful, but it is also the encouragement that is received in the process! Thank you to those that supported us this week.... you truly blessed us!

Also... I wanted to update you on a previous post. I had mentioned mailing a special gift to a family in process. Well... in another post I noticed that the 'surprise' ornament was able to be seen in one of the photos I had posted! Oops! I was hoping it wouldn't be noticed and spoil the surprise... I guess it didn't! They received their gift yesterday and I received this message from her today:

We received your package yesterday! I don't know what to say...except Bless You... bless you for praying for our boy, bless you for your generousity in sending us this beautiful ornament, just bless you for everything! I do remember reading on your blog what you were going to do with the ornament that you had for the "little boy". I had no idea he would be my little boy, what a surprise to open that package to find that heartfelt letter and precious ornament of our baby! Words will never be enough to thank you! You are so sweet!

The little boy?
I'm so glad I had the opportunity to bless them in this process! More importantly, I am so glad they are bringing him into their family!
