Adoption can be scary, I am not going to lie.
Every fear I had was magnified during our adoption process, but I learned I cannot be controlled by my fears. If I had let that happen, we would have completely missed out on the joy we now have. The best things don’t come easily. Overcoming our fears and diving in was worth it.
That said, two of my fears about adoption were biggies: money and love.
Will I have enough money?
It’s the question no one wants to ask. Because if we ask that, we seem insensitive, right? As we began exploring adoption, this question froze me. I run a money-saving blog…”

Fear of money ! I couldn’t relate with our first adoption. I was so sure god had a plan and would provide. He did. We were frugal yet. Didnt have extra in the budget. Someone we paid it all off in three years. Now the second and third adoption I still struggled. Why? I had seen Him provide before but inside I still struggled. Today once again I need to be reminded of His provision . See where I have been, where He has provided and how tomorrow will be taken care of
Sorry somehow. We paid it off ! Big differnce from someone
