The other day I was talking to my friend, Kyla, and something really stuck with me. We were talking about how hard it was waiting for Ramya to come home. Seeing her transfer to the third orphanage because our paperwork was taking too long, when there was nothing I could do to speed it up, was heartbreaking. Every day spent waiting for her felt like years. There wasn't a second in the day I didn't think about her. At the time, I couldn't understand why things weren't moving faster and I doubted God's plan. What I didn't realize at the time, however, was that if our adoption had moved faster and Ramya had not moved orphanages, I would have never met Deena and our family would not be complete. Both girls are such a blessing and joy in our lives, and I can't imagine life without them. The delays weren't fun, and it breaks my heart that Ramya had to be moved, yet again, but I'm so thankful that there was a purpose to our trials. I am so thankful that God perfectly orchestrated the timeline so that Deena could also become our daughter.
