I've been following your blog, praying...specifically praying and asking Kathryn on how you are doing. I loved the visual your friend gave you about floating on the log. While reading it, I wondered... Where would God be in the scenario? Then I thought well of course, he would be standing on the water right next to you. He Stands on the water to show his strength for you, he sits on the log beside you when you want to be quiet, he gets in the water and hangs on with you just to have those one on one chats that only the Lord can provide, when you both have decided it's time to kick, his kicks are like a power boat that leave a wake to show you how far he's taken you and HE provides the support and comfort that you need through friends and family once you arrive on the shores. <br /><br />I'm a mom of a 3 1/2 yr old boy and i'm not sure if all moms/wives do this but i catch myself preparing my mind for tragic moments in my future. What would i do if... how would i handle it, what would the memorial look it, what would be my testimony on how i reacted to the tragedy etc. Then i heard Beth Moore say one day, " Preparing yourself for tragedy is a waist of energy because the strength you have now is not the strength God will give you when and if tragedy happens because only HE knows the strength HE will need to give you to encourage you and to help you heal." <br /><br />Before you were born, he knew you would be going through this, he has been molding you and loving you so that, even in your hardest lowest days, you still have the strength to heal because he has been preparing you for it. <br /><br />I can tell you through personal experience, someone who has lost family members and 2 close family members to murder-suicide, that there is healing and life beyond the sadness. <br /><br />Sometimes I imagine family members in heaven looking down on me and I talk to them and I also talk to the Lord and ask the Lord to give them a message from me:) It's a way to put your brain in the frame of mind that your loved ones are walking through life with you. Gives a little comfort:)<br /><br />I have a friend who has lost her husband (late 30's) recently and she is a Christian. If you are interested in her contact info i can email it to you. Her husband passed away in Jan, 2012 so she can relate to where you are now. <br /><br />Even though i don't know you, I love you and am praying. So glad Kathryn and Mark are moving back to be near you:)<br /><br />Love your sister in Christ,<br /><br />Misty Chappelle<br />Misty.Chappelle@gmail.comcarnellchappelle.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15894455150118394040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703702705352545257.post-77501060381373923372011-01-13T06:16:11.252-10:002011-01-13T06:16:11.252-10:00Wow. I can't imagine the fear of the unknown. ...Wow. I can't imagine the fear of the unknown. I have three boys of my own and your story has clenched my heart this morning. You have been lifted up-- to your heavenly Father who has numbered every step of little Wavybel's life. <br /><br />God is our refuge and our strength, an ever present help in times of trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth gives way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.

I felt compelled to write to you both and tell you that I am so sorry to hear about what you're going through and the pain of losing your daughter. I certainly hope, especially very soon, that we all will be able to read that by some God-given miracle, that you'll be able to keep her in your home.<br /><br />I'm also from Kansas, but now I live in Florida where the adoption process is in the best interest of the child. I am APPALLED that the State of Kansas would even CONSIDER giving your precious baby girl back to the sperm donor as, by reading your posts, it seems he doesn't care two blinks about her.<br /><br />I just want to let you know that I will be praying for your family and of course, hope for the best outcome, even though from reading the other part of the blog it seems that it is perhaps inevitable that she will leave your home. <br /><br />Never give up hope, as I'm sure you all are weary. I will be praying and have my mom praying for you (She's still up in KS) and see if I can get my "peeps" down here in Jacksonville to pray for you all as well. <br /><br />Good luck and I will keep my fingers crossed and be praying for you!!!!<br /><br />-Ren :)<br /><br />p.s. - I'm also appalled that the sperm donor's attorney would write "he could make her soup" as a means of spending time with her while she's sick. What a joke! (I can just tell both the attorney and the sperm donor are both cads.)The Pineapple Pirate!https://www.blogger.com/profile/00450834724827279503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703702705352545257.post-43847116976312847772010-10-31T14:57:59.479-10:002010-10-31T14:57:59.479-10:00Hi, My name is Misty and I'm a friend of a fri...Hi, My name is Misty and I'm a friend of a friend. I have a 2yr old and can't imagine him being taken away. I am a huge believer in specific prayer and among you and others, i've seen God's miracles even after laws of the land have been set in stone. I will pray that this biological father will quickly realize how much time and effort and love it takes to love and raise a child and will reconsider his desires to raise Waverely and sign rights over to you. We serve a God that is capable of anything. I hurt for you and will be checking your blog.

We have two adopted children and their adoptions went very smoothly but we had one that the birth mother changed her mind the day after the baby was born. It was heartwrenching but God is Faithful and He alwlays takes care of us. I know He will see you through this. Trust Him and know that our family will be praying for your family. You have a beautiful family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703702705352545257.post-6535940451015111402009-08-23T15:59:35.585-10:002009-08-23T15:59:35.585-10:00I know that God can do all things - that nothing i...I know that God can do all things - that nothing is too difficult for Him. I know that He loves to hear our prayers and that His heart is for Waverley to be loved and raised and celebrated by you, Matt and Molly, her parents. I hate that this is still "undone" in a legal sense and absolutely cannot imagine anyone trying to hurt or take Warrick from us. It is horrifying to think about. I will pray and I will fight. I will pray that Truth will be evident to all involved in the case and that Love will prevail. Love you guys. I will expect good and miraculous news again.Brett and Betsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17084980326143114559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703702705352545257.post-75432663267126311752009-08-22T14:22:35.141-10:002009-08-22T14:22:35.141-10:00I too, will be praying for you and your family! wh...I too, will be praying for you and your family! what precious little ones your have and what LOVING parents they have!

I am asking the Lord to protect your precious baby and all of you. I will continue to pray as the Lord brings you to mind, I have a feeling you won't be far from it. <br><br>I found you through Amy Sieve.Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10624308860293269049noreply@blogger.com
