When I was little I always wanted to adopt a child from every country. I got those Precious Moments dolls from around the world. Maybe it was because I was an only child but I believe it was because God was planting a seed in my heart even as a little girl. As I grew I realized that I loved other cultures. I wanted to live everywhere. I asked for a globe and geography encyclopedia in elementary school. By college I had already been to Spain, France, England, and lived in Mexico for a year. My minor was Applied Linguistics...the study of languages/cultures. I had very seriously considered being a missionary right out of college. So, I tell you all this to see that God had created pretty fertile soil for adoption. Well, fast-forward a bit to the summer of 2008. All during that summer I was seeing adoption everywhere....on the radio, internet, in conversations with friends, etc. I started thinking about it more seriously and wondering how to tell Brian what I was thinking! I prayed...a lot. :)
Tune in tomorrow to find out what happened next!
