Overcome The Lie

I broke down crying to my husband.
I can't do this for the rest of my life.
What I do isn't important.
No one cares.
I am no awesome baker. 
My "decorating" skills are highly lacking.
I don't make things with my hands. I don't know how to sew, knit or crochet.
I don't home school.
I do the same thing day in a day out.
Repetitive.
What I do doesn't matter.

That lie.
What I do DOES matter.
It matters to....


 This girl

And this boy

And also this girl

    Girl...you matter! {ps I'm a horrible decorator} You're making a difference in your children's lives and they influencing others, it's a network of influence in whoever you meet. Also one thing I have to remember is that we see other peoples life highlights, not the lowlights.

We are not part of his story and he is not part of ours

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
