Micah and I wanted share with you our hopes and dreams for the future as God wills. We are on our way to adopting a child into our family. Since before we were married we knew we wanted to have children and during our 11 years of marriage we have prayed to have a child of our own to love unconditionally and raise them to know, love and fear the Lord. We have been patiently waiting for the Lord to bless us with a child and as of this last year in 2012 we concieved twice. This was a huge surprise and blessing to us. Although we miscarried both babies, we are continuing to pursue adoption. We look forward to doing everything we can to offer a child a safe, loving and happy and supportive family and environment. We are currently working with Christian Family Care Agency for this adoption. Clearly adoption, both in the physical sense and in the spiritual sense is shown in a favorable light in Scripture (Psalm 82:3). Both those who adopt and those who are adopted are receiving a tremendous blessing, a privilege exemplified by our adoption into God&'s family. So through this journey we want to give God all the glory! In Christ, Jessica and Micah Barton
