Mary Beth...I've stumbled upon this, and I'm so glad. What a gift to your sweet babe...now and to come. Thank you for honoring her story...the beginning of it. I so respect your intention, your heart, your courage in being honest. I can tell it came from a "whole" place and I celebrate that. Keep finding and seeing and capturing story...life!

I too really appreciated the part where you gave Evelyn permission to love her birth mom fully....brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful words and thoughts Mary Beth!

This is so precious! I love it all, but especially the part where you give Evy the encouragement blessing to love her birth mother too. I'm going to share this with my daughter and her husband who are awaiting their "forever" child. Thanks for sharing, Mary Beth, you're so sweet!

Mary Beth,

Well said. My next sermon in the simply Jesus series is on the Topic of Jesus being king of the Kingdom. Would you consider sharing this with the church? We can talk more about how to do that, but this is a great article.

Love it! This is such a great idea. I was shocked how the book I made sold like hot cakes (to benefit FOVC). I think I'll order this one too because I love the idea of getting the CD, and really love the idea of supporting Lifesong!

God bless you all in your passion for the children who need us.

Love it! We're moving to Ethiopia in 2012 and I want to learn some basic Amharic before we go. I love supporting Adami tulu, as well, and the matching thing is a nice perk. Thanks for making this available!

Ok that was the sweetest little interview I've seen in along time!! (I think he would have gone on for about 10 more examples of teddy bear matching, had you let him.)

Great idea! Lots easier than 14 batches of peanut brittle too.

Loved our time together last weekend. There definitely is an unexplainable bond between those who share the same "holy discontent".
