"Will God or someone else give me the strength to breathe the breath of prayer and mourning into my paintings, the breath of prayer for redemption and resurrection?"

hope fulfilled
i waited A LONG time for motherhood....so many prayers, so many tears, so MUCH waiting.... so thankful that the Lord blessed me with my sweet baby girl.....such joy and delight and a blessing to finally be a mother....
What joy! Love this picture. I particularly like how you can tell that she is holding onto your hair as she wraps her arm around your neck. Something about it just gets me...
I haven't read them-I should look into them. I know you travelled to Taiwan and not mainland China, but did you get vaccinated and what vaccines did you get?
