I look over at the couch and see a typical “oh my gosh they are so adorable” parent moment until I think about it for a second longer. Three more seconds and the tears pool at the corners of my eyes. The delicate path that lead them to be brothers could have turned another direction. The hundreds of hugs, kisses, and belly laughs they’ve shared over the last almost three years might have never happened at all.
It’s hard to think about adoption and say it was “meant to be.” A child losing his birth family is never the way it is suppose to be.
But a child finding a forever family to love and cherish them is a pretty amazing thing. Out of all the families in the world, God led him to us. And sometimes that knocks the breath right out of this mama.
