We received another call yesterday. A five year old girl and a 2 1/2 year old boy. I desperately wanted to say, "Yes." But, a big concern that Trent has always had was taking a child older than Anne. We said, "No," again.
It was much more difficult this time around for me. I love and respect Trent, so I submit to him. But yesterday it certainly was not easy.
Please pray for unity as we make life-changing decisions that will affect not only us, but also our children and the children we will humbly attempt to care for.
Also, for those of you who don't know how this works, we receive a call with information about the children and their situation. We have about 10-15 minutes to decide if we will take them or not. If we say "Yes," (at least with these first 2 calls) the children will be brought to our house within a couple of hours.
Huge decisions on a small amount of time. Again, please pray for unity as we make these decisions. I thank you all sincerely.
