Test of Faith

Well, as things stand right now, Faith has been selected by "the powers that be" to be adopted by a single woman on the other side of this country. I'm at a loss as to how this can possibly be in the best interest of Faith. Never mind the fact that my family & I love and adore her to pieces. Never mind we've had her in our lives since she came home from the NICU as a baby. Never mind we suffered the loss of her twin brother at 14 months, and she is the other half of him. The fact is she has been with us for 5 years and knows my sister as her mom. She adores my twin sister, and is crying for Andrea as soon as Andrea leaves Faith's side. She is joined to Andrea at the hip. She loves my nephew & niece and thinks of them as her own siblings. She is established in her school, in church, in the neighborhood. She has made such strides since her seizures as a baby. The doctors didn't think she would walk or talk, and look at her now. Talking like crazy; running around. She loves the snow (when it appears), she loved my dog, loves my kitties. She loves Dora, Diego, Wow Wow Wubzy, loves to sing.... She loves my parents so much too. She always runs to my dad when she sees him, and hugs my mom so tight. I am convinced that the love and interactions she gets from my family and from everyone at church and school have only helped her reach these amazing strides. The worst thing that could happen to her would be to rip her from this life she knows and take her across the country to strangers. I don't care if they are sweet people who love kids; they are strangers. And it would be devastating to Faith. I don't know that she is able to understand what is happening. I think she would go backwards and her progress would come to a screeching halt. I am praying so hard that God grants our prayers and a family is found here for her. Please join me in those prayers. I have to trust God on this one; it's really a true test of faith definitely! Thank you!!!!
