they are placing that 2 month old baby girl with my friend Kay, so, I'm taking Leila for the day so she can go pick up this little one from the hospital, thank you Lord!!
I'm so glad I will get to see her and love on her too, thank you for Kay who has the same heart as myself, who can not stand to see these little ones who are broken.
We together are going to love on these foster babies.
The little boy they are leaving in the children s shelter home, they will let Kay know if they need her to come and get him at a later date.
Due to her having 2 little ones under the age of 2.
Keep praying for them!!!
Thank you :)

Babies need me and I need them,
got a horrible email about 2 kids that need a foster home
16month old boy and 2 month old girl.
The boy is in a shelter home and the girl, at childrens mercy, she has baby shaken syndrome,two broken legs and a fractured arm!!
I want to run up there right now, put her in my arms, be Jesus to her right now, hold her like a mommy should and kiss her, tell her she is safe in these arms, Jesus' arms.
I called and told the dfs worker that we are waiting on our own little girl and could not commit to these siblings full time, but I would leave right now to hold her, we would do respite care for them,we would babysit for them, anything to help.
My heart yearns for these children. I love all my kids, my nieces, my kids at work, the kids at church, but my heart pours out to these children who do not have someone to love on them, who are without a mommy and daddy. This is my heart, my passion, I want to GO right now.
Im waiting for a phone call back from the worker...please pray for these children.

Getting into my bible and bible studies today,had two appointments, canceled them both.
Need a day to recoup and just sit in the father's presence,ya know "be still"
Hope everyone has a great Monday and I hope the sun is shining wherever you are :)

Felt shaken yesterday, nothing about adoption,but about a long burden that has been heavy on my heart and someone else in this world. My heart is still hurt.
I know we are suppose to forgive and I'm usually really good about it, but really, I can't let go still, even after being approached yesterday. I still am hurt and now all those feelings have arose, what now?
I know forgiving her will set me free,but for some reason I can't. I can't let it go, it hurt to much.
My husband and I knew what financial security felt like, now we don't.
Most of you are scratching your heads wondering what I could be talking about, and it's ok, you don't have to know, but I do want you to pray for me and this person, she hurt me and I need to find peace about it, will you pray for the both of us?
It's easy I think to just push things aside that hurt us, but it takes a lot more to deal with them and let them go, so again pray for me to let it go. She said sorry, why can't I leave it there? Forgive her and be done, sounds easy huh? , but it's not.
Troubled,
Shelley

Just giving you all a update from the McCain household.
We are meeting our birth mom on the 22nd of this month. It all kinda seems surreal right now.
I'm not scared or worried, Im not even anxious.
I'm kinda at peace, and I don't know if it's just me guarding my heart,that until papers are signed and she is here that I can celebrate, or if God has given me that peace.
I know I had this peace with Mason too, lots of things could have gone wrong with him, but we really did not know any different, so we just went with it.
This time around we know ALOT more, and I don't know if that is good or bad, probably neither, just different.
So keep praying for us, we are at God's mercy, we trust him and know that he has heard our many prayers, we also have FAITH that he is sending us a little girl named Marley Claire McCain.
He already knows what she looks like, what her smile is going to be, the number of hairs on her head, he already knows her mom and dad and the desires of their hearts are to raise their children where Christ comes first. We are just waiting patiently on him.
Hope you all have a blessed day, love ya'll :)

ok, new post for those who are not here.
We did have a birth mom from the Lighthouse choose us...we have had this happen before and she change her mind, so.....if God willing :)
But there is more than one baby that needs a home.
Would you please pray for God to open the doors he wants us to walk through, and slam shut the one's that are not for us. We will do whatever he ask of us, WHATEVER.
God hears your prayers,please keep them coming.
Thank you !
The McCain family

ps
funny from Mason.... "hey Mason how would you feel if you had two sisters?"
"ummm no thanks, they would be TOO annoying"
"Yes,but then they would play with each other and not bother you as much"
Ok, I guess that would be ok"
LOVE THAT BOY!!

I know, I know.... some of you have asked, but we have heard nothing yet, so I will let you know.
For now please be in prayer, we have a young girl seeing our profile tomorrow, then keep praying for baby Leila, I asked her other foster mom if I could have her for a day or two, i need to snuggle with her. Also prayer for one more baby girl.
Please pray for all these birth mom's too, they have some tough decisions to make here soon.
Love ya'll
Shellley
