We had a great time at an Easter Egg Hunt today at church. A few weeks ago we were asked to pray about invited someone to church and instantly my boy's birth parents came to mind. I knew it would be an awkward situation and kind of hesitated on it, but I also knew I needed to do it. I talked to our SW and she said it would be OK to ask them. I called and invited them to the egg hunt and to church tonight (We've been going to our new Saturday service). They both showed up and we had a great time.
They said they may not be able to make it to church tonight because of gas prices and they just don't have much money. I am really debating on calling back and offering to give them a gas card. I know it was stressed in our classes to not offer money because it opens the doors up to be taken advantage of, so I'm struggling with what to do. I don't have a whole lot of time to think about it.
I really think that they are both very nice people, they just have to learn to deal with life. I'm really praying for them to make it!! I'm hoping that we can involve them more and more in what we do with the boys. I think this will help everyone when they get to go home, including me. I think if I can see how much they love the boys and how much they are trying, it will help me let the little ones go when it's time. I felt my heart soften a little today!!
Blessings,
Angel
