Today upon my arrival to work, I parked near a woman who is the director of a laboratory that we work closely with. She and I had a lovely conversation as we walked into the hospital. She has always taken a keen interest in our plan to adopt from China but was not aware of our switch to Taiwan. She quickly reminded me that she and her husband are from Taipei. She travels there several times a year to visit family and friends and made the sweetest offer. She would like to accompany my family when we travel. She makes enough trips during the year that it would be very easy to be sure she's in the country when we travel!
What a kind offer and one that I pray comes true......
Later in the day, one of my patients had three adopted children; two from China and one from Taiwan. Clearly a Godly woman she spoke directly to my spirit as she reminisced about her travels and her desire to one day add more adopted children. (She had three biological children and three adopted kids.) Her daughter is seen by my team yearly and as she left, she shook my hand, looked directly into my eyes and said " I'm expecting you to have pictures of your little one here for next year's appointment."
What kind words and ones that I pray come true.......
