Hello Everyone! Hope everyone is having a great January. I have been doing my Bible reading in Matthew and Isaiah this week. I always go back to those two. Like Romans and Psalms. It is comforting to me. I love Matthew 21  21:21 & 21:22 KJV
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And ALL things whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing ye shall receive.

I had a friend ask me the other day. How do you keep your FAITH so strong. I said look at what God has already done for me and my family, and My friends and family around us.

I know without a shadow of a doubt that we will get that call one day. When I don't know but God has a plan and a purpose.

Please remember two of mine and Casey's friends as they are just beginning the adoption process. It is not an easy journey but  God said I never promised it would be easy I just promised I would be with you.

Ode To Motherhood

© Faith E. Pilato

they say the child chooses
the parent before
they are conceived

God gave me lists
of mother's names
and pictures of them too.

I looked and looked
they all looked the same
and then I saw you.

Who is this woman?
I asked the Lord
She looks quite nice to me.
You have chosen well my child.
And he spoke these words to me.

She is kind and gentle
and very wise
and she will hold you
close to her
when you cry.

Her eyes will shine
when you take your first step
and smile at your delight.

She will show her pride
when you succeed
and pick you up
when you fail.

She will work hard
to give you the best she can
and rock you to sleep with weary time worn hands.

She will shelter you
on stormy days
and dry your fears away.
She will bask with you
in sunshine on
sunny summer days.

And when you are grown
like you soon will be
She will still be there
To comfort thee.

I choose her.
I told the Lord
For none like her
I've seen before.

And the day came
when I was born.
I had chosen well
of this I'm sure.

I picked you
above the rest
and because I did
My life is blessed

To all of our friends and family we love you. Please continue to remember us each and every day as we continue on this Journey and our friends who are beginning this Wonderful Journey. Please keep your eyes and ears open for possibilities. Please send us a personal inbox email either on our facebook accounts or fraziernat@gmail.com until next time may God Bless you and your families. Don't ever give up on what God has in store we may not see him working but he is. KEEP THE FAITH!!! We sure are.

Happy New Year to all of our family and friends. As we begin 2011 and our second year of our Adoption Journey we have lots of Faith and High Hopes that we will get that special call, or email that we have been chosen. Gives me chills just thinking about it. I know that God has a plan for us and we are excited to see what he has in store for our family. We love following other adoption journey's and hearing about them I get excited for them. It is amazing when they bring the baby or babies home and you see them with their long awaited child. Waiting is the hardest part of the adoption process. Oh but it is so worth it. Please continue to keep your ears and eyes open for any potential Birth Mothers for our family. It takes a courageous woman and man to put their child up for adoption if they only knew what a special gift that they are Blessing a family with. If i could have a dozen kids I would. As my momma always says Faith without works is dead so we are keeping the faith and keeping our options open we really would love a newborn but we are open to Infant and up. We want our Little Man to be a big brother. Thank you for following us on our Amazing Journey. We ask for your continued prayers and support. 

We love you all & God Bless
