This week I learned that Chloe and Eli will not be coming home
I will give no detail as this is private and very painful
I would appreciate you respecting my privacy during this time
and refrain from asking questions
I know that our journey to these two precious babies has been lived
so publicly. I know so many of you have loved us through each step
of this. Right now, I just ask for time and space.
My heart is breaking
I want each of you to know that I would appreciate your prayers for me
and my family. The losses seem too great.
However, I trust that the Father is working even now
I trust that He will carry us through this
I choose to TRUST Him
because He faithful

My heart breaks with you, Ashley, and I cry tears for your family and these children. You all will be in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI do not know you, nor can begin to image your pain. I wanted to reach out and let you know I'm lifting you up in prayer. We recently lost our referral for our two children one day before final judgment. We are still grieving and seeking peace in our hearts. But we know, like you, that God is in control and His plan is perfect. I am drawn to the JJ Heller song that says "I don't know what You're doing, but I know who You are. You have a Father's heart, and a love that's wild. And you know what it's like to lose, what it's like to lose a child." Praying and praying.
ReplyDeleteMy heart is broken for you Ashley! I will be praying for you all. I cannnot imagine or begin to understand all that you have gone through. But I do know that God is faithful and He will always carry us through the heartache. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you. We are just about to start our own adoption journey, and I have learned so much from just reading your blog and hearing Mandi talk about all God is doing in and through you. Thank you for sharing so much and know that I am praying for you today.
ReplyDeleteI am so so sorry. I have been following your story and waiting for your sweet babies to come home. My heart hurts for you. I hope you find peace.
