And that breaks my heart. It literally turns my stomach. When I look at her face, it makes me want to cry, so instead, I pray. Because I think that works better.
I have read story after story about families looking to adopt. They usually say that one day, out of the blue, they happen upon the picture of a child, and they instantly know that is their child. It doesn't matter how many miles are between them or what they will have to do to get her, because she is their child. Oceans, mountains, money, traveling, unsympathetic judges. They don't matter, because the need to get there and hold her in their arms is greater than any obstacle.
When I saw Carlene's picture, I immediately knew that I had to pray for her. I can't rescue her, but I can pray for her. I can pray that someone else finds her. So I want to ask, if you read this, and you have a blog or a facebook account, could you please put her picture up for just one day. The more people that see her sweet face, the better.
I pray that someone who sees her will know that she is their child. That she needs someone to hug her and kiss her. She needs to go to bed at night, knowing that she is loved.
She needs a homecoming like this:
