This is a song that I found at Christmas. I couldn't help but think about J. He's had an uphill battle his whole life. I played this song on Christmas night. It really hit close to home. Cecil and I both prayed that a home would be found for J, soon! Fast forward two months and now he's gone to his new family! His new family is the best thing anyone could ask for. The father is a Pastor of the Baptist Chuch in their town and the mom is a third grade teacher. They have two older kids, who are just wonderful. I remember the first conversation I had with the prospective mom. The first thing she asked me was, "Can you please tell me the good things about J?". He was excited to go, but hesistant to leave. He said he was going to miss everyone. He promised us that when he grew up, he was going to come back to visit us.
This will be an adjustment for them, so please pray for them. Claire doesn't understand it all either. She keeps asking, "Where J go, Momma?" No matter how hard this is on any of us, this is truly the ending we have all prayed for. I know he is going to have a wonderful life!
