One small hand
One small heart
One small dent
In the orphan ocean
We have three grandsons and one granddaughter, and soon we'll be holding our newest grandson. My daughter and son-in-law are adopting from the Congo and will hopefully have Baby M soon.
His small hand
His small heart
Their small dent

Many giving hands
Many open hearts
Our small dent
In the orphan ocean
I can't help thinking about this small boy, thousands of miles from his forever family. God knew this little one before he was even formed in his mother's womb, so we wait and trust and hope and pray and wish the time would hurry up.
Waiting hands
Waiting hearts
God's big plan

One beautiful small moment, adding up to a big lifetime event. As the mother of three sons myself, who are the brightest lights in my life I know with all my heart, that his forever family will mean the world to him. What a beautiful thing... and I look forward to spending some time later tonight, to read their story. Thank you so much for sharing it. Those small hands and hearts grow up so quickly to do big things. What a blessing....
This post is beautiful. I am so glad I stopped by to read it. Thank you!
