When we began this adoption journey I wanted to connect with a family of our faith that had adopted from foster care. I am not sure how I found her, maybe through the The Adventist Home Educator e-list? Anyway, I found a gal in our state that had adopted a sibling group. They were now a family with 6 kids and moving away to Alabama. It was good to talk to her and connected on facebook as well, and found out we have a lot of mutual friends.
Last week they were hit by the tornado and they have quite a story to tell. Their house destroyed, but still standing, while the homes around them leveled to the ground. She broke her ankle but their family is alive. The trauma has been difficult on the little ones, however God's care has been evident all around them. She writes a bit of the story here: Canaday Family Adventures
Signs that we are in the last days really hits home when it hits your home!!
Even so, come Lord Jesus!
