I had written my book and had the title and then came across this quote which I love...
The most important person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has built something more magnificent than any cathedral - a dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby’s body. The angels have not been blessed with such a grace. They cannot share in God’s creative miracle to bring new saints to heaven. Only a human mother can. Mothers are closer to God the Creator than any other creature. God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of creation. . . What on God’s good earth is more glorious than this: to be a mother?

That is beautiful.
Deanna,
We chatted through emails last year when we were hoping to adopt an 11 year old from Ethiopia from a disruption.
Wow has God been at work!
Wow.
Anyway, I remember your uplifting comments, offers to help and encouragment from one NC mom to another.
When my friend Carolyn has been throwing your name around, it sounded so familiar and finally I remembered the injera, guacamole and hot dog combo and looked your blog up!
Wow!
Praise God for the work He is doing in you and your family!
He is STIRRING HEARTS!
May He continue to bless the work of your hands,
Holly- purpose driven family
