Libby's Thoughts

Yesterday morning (March 22) Libby woke up chatting away as usual. But she paused for a moment, looked at me and said, "Mom, Jesus wants to tell you something." I said, "What does He want to say?" And Libby replied, "He says Lulu is coming really soon."


So obviously, I just had to write that down so we don't forget about it. And also, who knows - maybe we'll find out something significant happened on that very day in the adoption process or in Lulu's life.

Today, out of nowhere (once again), Libby said, "Mommy, I'm sad." I asked, "Why are you sad?" And she said, "Lulu's not here." So we prayed together that Jesus would see Libby's heart and answer her cries to bring her baby sister home soon.

Someone is going to think I am making all this up or that I am coercing her to say these precious things. But truly, these comments come when we are on completely different topics of conversation. Her face/expression changes to a more serious one and out comes some sweet thought about Lulu. 

Libby is so ready for her little sister. I just keep praying and asking God to give us a referral soon, a really quick court date, and a successful pass on the first try in court so we can get Lulu before court closures!

I hope she's right. Looking forward to meeting you Lulu!

I agree with Libby's sweet spirit led words 100%! For I believe children see and communicate with God and the holy spirit much more openly than adults.

Praying to hear the good news of Lulu's home coming in the days ahead!!
