Well I have been crazily checking my daughter's blogspot that her adoptive parents made, because they are just oh so proud to be new parents. And I thought it was time to create one of my own to let everyone know what all is going on with me and things in my life.
For those of you who dont know me I am 21 years old and I have 2 kids, a 21 month old son named Brayden and a daughter I had on February 18th but placed for adoption with an amazing family. Her name is Kylie Maleah officially but now is Caroline. The adoption is one of the most amazing things I have have ever decided to do in my life. I am a single mother already and when I found out I was pregnant with her, I knew I was in no place in life to give her everything she would need. Luckily God showed me to Marc and Amy and I instantly loved them!! I knew that God could not have picked two more deserving people ever!!! So now I have placed her for adoption but I still haven't lost a moment of her life. The adoption is so open I could call at anytime and as what she is doing and they would be more than willing to tell me. You dont find that kind of realtionship just anywhere. I miss my daughter more than anything in the world right now, but I know God has an amazing plan for her with Marc and Amy I am just so thankful I will be able to know what it is!! I have become a member of another amazing family!
4 days after I left the hospital I woke up that morning with what I found out to be Bell's Palsy. I was completely paralyzed on the right side of my face. There is no true known cause for it, but it seems to occur when put under alot of stress. I was told to expect it to take about 6 months to heal. Well after going to the doctor and being put on steriods and an anti-viral pill, I now am about 80% healed. Thank GOD!!!! I just expected the worse but prayed for the best and here comes my savior again !!!
I now am in the process of trying to get my life going in a successful direction, I am watching for God's signs but he isn't just shoving them in my face. All I have ever been is a waitress so I don't have experience for the things I would like to pursue now. My only option at this time is to join the Air Force Reserves and study Diagnostic Medical Sonography in their community college. The only problem with that is I would have to be away from my son for at least 2 1/2 months which will be SUPER hard. So I just need to step back, check all my options but most of all just keep trusting God will show me the way.....

You didn't lose a daughter. You gained a family.
Megan ~ I'm friends with Marc & Amy from a few years ago. We met through church in Lubbock. We now live in NC and are VERY excited they will be in VA soon!
I just wanted to tell you what an amazing woman I think you are! I CANNOT even begin to imagine how difficult it must have been to make the decisions you have made for yourself and your daughter. But I thank you! What a wonderful gift you have given my friends.
I look forward to reading how God will continue to bless you.
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." Matthew 6:33
