Waiting for Evie

As we continue to walk forward in faith along our journey of life, our thoughts are often with Evie.

Evie is the little one we hope to adopt. We are in the waiting process of adopting a toddler. Evie is the name we call her as we pray for her daily and have for years now.


Abby asks about Evie everyday. We thought we were going to get our "Evie" and so we changed my jewelry studio room into her bedroom in one day. But things changed and Evie didn't come. We told Abby that God is looking to find Evie and will bring her to us when He is ready and when she is ready.


So everyday, Abby takes things of hers to Evie's room and gives them to her. These are some of her socks she has given to Evie along with some toys she placed right in the doorway so Evie could immediately see she had some toys. There is a pile of hair barretts, stuffed animals, purses, belts, ribbons, and the much needed pull ups. It just makes me smile... just like my Q-tips.


We do not know what God has in store for us. Whether Evie will come through a pregnancy or through the miracle of adoption. But we do believe with all our hearts we have a place for her and it is in God's plan for her to be a part of our family. And so we wait and pray... and fill her room with wonderful little things of love.
