NEEDED: Prayer partners!

As many of you know I am a bit "addicted" as some may say to the website http://www.reecesrainbow.org/.  I won't lie I could spend hours on it.  I have followed many, many blogs and have seen pictures and read stories that sometimes I wish I never stumbled upon.  The reason for this is truly selfish.  There are days that I wish I could forget the faces I've seen, stories I read or that I could just stop feeling guilty.  Guilty that I have fear.  Fear that stops me starting paperwork.  Fear that won't allow me to commit to a child because of this or that reason.  Fear that the finances aren't there.  Fear that the child with have something wrong with them that I am not ready to handle.  Fear that people will not understand.  Fear that someday I will stand before my God and hear......I have opened your eyes.  I showed you my children.  Children who needed you.  I have supplied you with all that you ever needed and more.  You chose to let fear come between what you knew in your heart was pleasing to me and what was comfortable and easy for you.  You chose to close your eyes........

I choose everyday to keep my eyes opened, opened very wide.  I choose to not let fear enter.  To go forward everyday on this road to adoption with faith.  Not everyone needs to adopt but we are all responsible to help orphans and widows.  One way is through prayer.  You can sign up to be a prayer warrior for children on reece's rainbow.  Here is where you come in.  I have choosen three children.  I truly believe that prayer is a very very powerful tool.  I would like to share the children that I have promised to pray for daily.  Every single day until the day they go home to their "forever family".  I would love it if each of these kids could have many prayers being said daily for them.  So here they are and please join me in praying for them........

Chelsea

Date of Birth: October 5, 2007

Gender: Female
Eyes: Blue
Hair: dark brown
Character: cheerful, kind    This sweet little girl is almost 3 years old.  She was born to a very young, single mom at 34 weeks gestation.  She had some minor pulmonary issues in her first days of life as a result of her preemie birth, but she is very healthy now!   She was born with an open oval window which may have closed on it's own.

Chelsea is affectionate, friendly, inquisitive child.   She loves to hug and kiss.   She smiles and laughs a lot.  She is a pet in the group.   She loves to play with dolls, puzzles. She is petite and gracious. She is active for a child with Down syndrome and can be strong-willed, get angry and weep if anything is not her way. But she can be easily distracted from a disappointing her thing. She cannot dress by herself and does not want to eat by herself. Her appetite is not very good. She is rather selective and does not like sweets. She is used to a potty, but cannot ask about it.

She started to sit up at 1.5 years of age, then started to crawl. She started to walk at 2 years of age.   Now she runs fast, walks up and down the stairs, slides. She exhibits some muscle hypotony. She is delayed in her speech development. She speaks with syllables, but understands what is said to her and is obedient. To the question “where?’ she shows correctly her eyes, ears, arms.

  Chelsea will be transferred in the coming year to a very remote part of the country, and will be *out of reach* for adoption.  Hope someone will consider this beautiful child and give her hope for a future!
