Even so, God gives us the honor of raising children - we don't own or deserve such a treasure.

How beautiful your words are. As a relative who adopted our son out of foster care, just reading your post gave me peace and healing.
My heart aches for the wonderful families who give and give to their foster children, wanting that forever family so much.
