Alll the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. Psalm 139:16

I love that verse! God can speak to us through anything,right? Yes, I believe, even through a fortune Cooke! At the end of last year, right before we were matched with our baby (ok toddler) Steve received a fortune cookie that stated "you will soon enjoy a trip to Asia" strange one huh? Much different from the usual "friendship will find you if you look for it " kind of thing. Pretty strong prediction, even for a fortune cookie, if you ask me.  A few days later we received "the call" and were told we were going to China to pick up our daughter. A few weeks later when I was cleaning out the house I found a letter I had written to my mom. I remembered the purple stationary with the teddy bear at the top but not the letter's content. I wrote the letter when I was around 11 years old so my parents had not even had my brothers at the time. The letter was about am older girl who lived in an orphanage. All she wanted for her birthday was to be adopted. Well, in walk a couple ages 41 and 42 (Steve and I are not quite that age yet) just Saying- anyway the couple was getting older so they didn't want a newborn, they wanted an older child!
I can't get over that story and how I found it at just the right time. God's timing is perfect even if it doesn't match up with ours! It's still amazing to me that God knew long ago and placed the desire to adopt in my heart long before I even knew it.  He already knows , He's already there!
