We originally began our adoption process in the summer of 2004. At that time we also began praying in earnest for the little baby girl that God had already created specifically to be in our family. We prayed for her health and the health of her birthmother, and we prayed that God would protect them both from harm and that he would give her birthmother strength and comfort.
A few months after we started the adoption process, we found out that we were pregnant! Even though we were thrilled we were also a bit grieved because God had already created a love in our hearts for a little girl that we did not even know anything about yet. . . We were surprised at this turn of events, but God was not. He graciously planned for us to cover Lilibeth's first few months of life in prayer. (Lilibeth was born in the summer of 2004 - right about the same time we started praying for her.)
