For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together
in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am
fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together
in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

Psalm 139: 13 - 16

Do not be afraid, for I am with you, I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west.

-Isaiah 43:5
For I know the plans
I have for you,
" declares the LORD,"
plans to prosper you and
not to harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
For this child I prayed,
and the Lord has given me my petition which I asked of Him. 
So I have also dedicated her to the Lord; as long
as she liveth she is dedicated to the Lord.
I Samuel 1: 27 - 28

Adoption
Not flesh of my flesh,
Nor bone of my bone,
But nonetheless,
My very own.
Never forget
For a single minute
That you weren't born
Under my heart
But in it

by Fleur Conkling Heylinger
An invisible red thread connects those who are destined
to meet regardless of time, place or circumstance.
The thread may stretch or tangle, but will never break.

-An Ancient Chinese Belief
Hallie’s my
Adopted sister, I
Love her so much, she
Looks sort of chubby, but
I don’t mind at all
Even if she’s far away, I still love her.

-- Big brother, Caleb, age 10
