I wrote this poem a long time ago in honor of adopting our daughter. She moved in with us when she was four years old, and it took us two yeas, but she was finally adopted into our family 2 years later. She’s been with us the whole time. She’s an amazing young lady. She is now 17.
Answered Prayer

Sitting herewith stars in my eyes,
thinking a thousand
thoughts of you.
Quietly wondering,
then I realize –
what I did
to deserve you.
I think the thing
that I did right
was ask for you
in prayer.
Before I slept
most every night,
God assured me
you were out there.
Now here you are
all in my heart,
a treasure
for me to keep.
And now I know
the sweetest part
is Singing you
to sleep.
As always, make champion choices,
The Healthy Habit Lady
