I first heard about Tiffany's story (okay...I know it's really God's story) from my DC/MD/VA adoption buddies over breakfast. When I got back home, I wanted to read it for myself. Now that I've read it for myself....I have to share it with you.
Tiffany and her husband had been matched with this precious little boy and were all geared up to go get him and bring him back home. But then Tiffany uttered a small prayer to God: shatter my heart.
So God did...in a MAJOR way. NOT by coincidence, Tiffany meets Habtamu who becomes the catalyst for her prayer to God to shatter her heart...(read the first part of the story here: http://amomentcherished.blogspot.com/2011/01/my-answered-prayer.html)
In the sweetest way, Tiffany finds that she is also 'mother' to this amazing, young, handsome little boy as well....(read that part of the story here...http://amomentcherished.blogspot.com/2011/03/rich.html)
As if my heart can take any more of this story, Tiffany now fights likes any good 'mother' on behalf of her other boy who is thousands of miles away. Follow their story and intercede in prayer on behalf of Habtamu and the many other children who find themselves living on the streets. (read this final part of the story here...http://amomentcherished.blogspot.com/2011/03/other-boy.html)
So love how God is into the details of our lives.

Our Big Announcement...A Baby Sister???
"Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Willis?" That's the famous line by Arnold of Different Strokes. (If you're tryin' to figure out who is Arnold or Different Strokes, well baby, you're just too young to know..smile).
In any case, you may be asking yourself that exact same question. A Baby Sister says the heading of the post. Michelle, what are you talking about? I mean you're the chick that has clearly stated over and over that you're finished having children...in fact, you had your tubes tied (okay, maybe TMI --too much information--for some). So what's going on???
Well, Tony and I are beginning the process to adopt a baby girl from Ethiopia and we are soooo excited.
What? How? Why? Are you sure? More to come later this week so stay posted!
