Well Dignity, be careful, you may live next door and not know it. LOL

Don't forget what happened to me. I went around for 5 years saying, "I wish I had a little girl to take care of!" From my lips to God's ears. I know now that He does hear my prayers, but is just waiting for me to finally LET GO, before He answers them.

Do you remember that poem that was posted years ago, now I've forgotten who posted it, but it is beautiful with a lot of meaning. I'm going to post it now it may hit home to a lot of you, it sure did to me! Here it is:

As children bring their broken toys,
in tears for us to mend
I brought my broken dreams to God,
because he was my friend
And then, instead of leaving him
in peace to work alone
I hung around and tried to help
with ideas of my own
At last I snatched them back and said
"How can you be so slow?"
"My child," He said, "what could I do? You never did let go."


Hugs, Devastated
