Sorry for the cryptic comments - I can't really elucidate (partly because I don't know how to spell it) as it's not mine to tell. Suffice to say that yesterday was yet another emotional upheaval in the Smudgie Towers household - parenting adopted children has some pretty mega upheavals entailed within it! One or two people know specifically, because I needed their help with it directly, most people knew only that we were all in need of prayer. I can only say that all went absolutely as well as could be expected and I am immensely proud of the strength of character of both my boys as well as being intensely grateful for the prayers of friends and the total grace of God.
Please continue to remember my boys as they work their way through this state of maturing into the knowledge of what adoption really means, and of dealing with the jumble of emotions that it necessarily entails. I mean, the teenage years are bad enough on their own, without so many other things to come to terms with.
Meanwhile I'm frantically frantically struggling to get the bungalow ready for visitors. Friday is coming far far too quickly!!!
