Tabitha.
Her birthday is sometime this month. Like many other children in her country, we only know her birthday month, not the day.
But I'm pretty sure it's today. Don't ask me why I think that, it's a long story that would probably bore you out of your mind... I don't believe in coincidences, I believe in God-incidences. :)
So today we are celebrating her birthday, and praying it's her last birthday without a family! But there is not much to celebrate, because she still needs a family.
We would probably bring her home if we could, but we can't. Not because of finances, but because we don't qualify for her region. In her region, the child coming home has to be the 5th one, or less. We already have 7 children.
She is the little sister of my heart, since she will probably never legally be my little sister.
She could be identical twins with my brother Jonathan, that's what drew us to her in the first place. :) See? This is Jonathan:
I don't know what else to tell you about her, except that she needs a family.
She is turning 2. She should be blowing out the candles on her cake surrounded by a family who loves her so very much. Instead, she is sitting alone in her orphanage, with her birthday forgotten.
PLEASE PLEASE pray with me that this is Tabitha's last birthday alone. She just needs lots of prayers to make her birthday wish come true - her wish for a family!

ReplyDeleteSarah, I was wondering if you still wanted me to write a guest post about Owen? I would love to and can get one to you soon if you'd like. Do you have any special questions you would like me to try to answer in the post?
Thanks and God bless!
