| First picture we ever saw of Vera |
In September of 2009, my mother-in-law asked me what I wanted for my birthday. I couldn't think of a single thing, so I decided we'd raise funds and advocate for a child from Reece's Rainbow - and specifically, a child from William's birth country.
And thus, the quest to find Vera's family began. We prayed and prayed. We asked God to lead a family to become Vera's forever family. We shared her story with everyone, and we waited for God to lead her family to her.
Yesterday, I saw those prayers answered. Vera is now a daughter and a sister. She has a Daddy, a Mommy, two brothers, and a sister.
It was beautiful. I can't even put into words what it was like to kneel down beside her and talk to her.
Instead, I'll show you a few pictures of her homecoming, and simply say...
God is good... all the time!
