Are we 'there' yet?


Each milestone it seems that we should 'arrive' at some point. But I am learning that this is not the case. I will be the first to admit that I seem to be suffering with separation issues concerning my oldest daughter.

When I adopted her, something within me changed. God seemed to knit our hearts together so tightly that I don't think we were ever meant to be separated. She had gone through so much, that I promised nothing would ever happen to her to put her in that situation ever again.. and I was going to see to it that it didn't.

Now, she is old enough to be on her own.. old enough, but not ready. Not ready, because I have held her too tightly.

Enter fear...

God is working on me.. helping me to release her in the proper manner.

Stay tuned...
