Yesterday I prayed for God to help us have peace about who we answer the call for and to help Davin and I decide if we are going to take teenagers. I didn't pray for a sign, just for clarity. Today when I took Alea to vision therapy her vision specialist came out to great us like always and sighed a big sigh of relief and said how grateful he was to get to work with someone over 5 years old finally. He said he had been screening 5 year old children all day at pre-k and he said he couldn't believe how they sucked the life right out of him. He said, "it's like the sucked the life right out of my soul." I laughed out loud. He doesn't know about our foster care journey so I told him we are about to become foster parents and how my husband only wants to take kids 5 and under and how I want to take teenagers. He said he would definitely go for teenagers. He said he thought 5 year old kids were potty trained but that several of them peed right in front of him. I couldn't stop laughing at his version of 5 year old kids but it is pretty much how I feel too.
I don't know if this was God giving me clarity or not but it was pretty funny either way.
