Ever since we brought BG home last year, my heart has been burdened even more for the kids who age out of international adoption. As a result, I set up a blog dedicated to highlighting those kids from all around the world whose chance at a family is quickly slipping away. Today, I have highlighted one such child on my other blog

Please take a moment to go check out Kate and the other kids posted there. Even if you can't bring one of these kids home, can you please pray that these kids will find their families?
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. Matthew 13:44-46

Thank you for this! There are so many children aging out soon. As a single mom, I had to find only one daughter, when my heart found two, I was torn in half. I'm advocating for the one I cannot have, too.
I am going to lock a file next week for my next daughter, if China agrees, who will age out this year. I'm so excited just thinking about her! Like your last adoptions, this is a leap of faith, for I am raising the funding for it as I go along. Not a simple feat for a single mom still paying for my first adoption. My daughter is such an amazing person and I cannot imagine my life without her and look forward to love that will fill our home even more with another daughter in it.
I just want you to know that your blog, outstretched arms, really does make a difference. We are in the process of adopting Zeke, the boy you featured in November. His story touched out hearts, God touched our hearts and the miracles keep happening! We first read his story on your blog, which, for some yet unknown reason was on my fav blog list. Bless you for your caring heart!
