OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I would have mentioned more about camping had I not been so tired. from 5:00 pm until like 6:30-7:00 pm I have dozed on and off like 5 times in the living room. I cannot stay awake long enough to think a complete thought. But, I mite be better now so I will give it a shot.
But like I wuz sayin`, OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, backing up to the year 2005, my family and I fostered a little boy, Eric, about 18 months old(?) Some family showed up and took him and we never herd from him since. Well, at the camp out on Thursday we had just gotten there and were trying to set up our tents. Then their was this little mischevious boy trying to get in the tent while wew were setting it up. I saw his face and would you know it IT LOOKED LIKE ERIC!!!!! I was SO posotive, but just to make sure I asked the boy who`s family had brought Eric (or whoever it might have been) what his name was. When he said "Eric," I ran back over there and all i could do was stare. It has been 2 years since I saw him last. I ran over and picked him up and covered him in hugs and kisses. He is 3 now. Of course he didn`t remember me, but I didn`t care, I was just so happy to see him again. Then I started 2 cry out of happiness and my friend who`s family fosters also started 2 cry 2. I was so sure I`d never see him agin. I spent practically the whole afternoon playing with him and took a years worth of pictures on my cell. The (homeschool) family he is with now are christians and seem 2 take care of him well. They`ve had him for 6 months now and are filing for adoption. Since they live in the next city over ( would take like approx. 10-15 min. 2 get there) I am kinda hoping they`ll get to adopt him and then I can babysit him often. He will always be my little brother in my heart, no matter where he is. We never fostered again after that. We just couldn`t handle the heartbreak. But babysitting him, watching him grow up, getting to be a part if his life would mean so much to me. I think saying goodbye was hardest 4 me of all of my family. I had already accepted him as my little brother. I loved him so much, (still do!!!) and was so angry and hurt that he had 2 leave. This could be an answer to prayer. I am so thanful 2 God 4 letting me see him again. God knew just how much I missed him and decided to bring me a little joy. Now I know that he is okay. Praise the Lord!!!!! Thank you God, because you didn`t have 2 do that but you love me so much that you wanted 2. Please pray that this will work out.
