Phone Call

4 years ago Thanksgiving week took on a new meaning for our family.  Om November 25th 2011 the phone rang and a sweet social worker asked me if we would be willing to take a newborn baby boy for a week.  I said yes and agreed to meet her at the hospital a few hours later.  After arriving at the hospital I quickly learned this would not be  a week long engagement.  Though as foster care always is it was unknown how long this sweet boy would actually stay.  Needless to say our sweet Trevor changed our lives forever.

I am so thankful for my sweet boy and so thankful for an unknown journey that led me to a place of having a deeper relationship with my heavenly Father. When I was handed this sweet baby boy as I sat in a rocking chair and I looked into his eyes and promised to love him I had no idea how many other amazing people and life lessons were coming with him.  He is my blue eyed curly headed boy.  With tons of energy and yet almost half the day today he cuddled on my lap just because.  Oh what would my life be without him...I am so thankful I will never know.
