The Love Of A Mother

We have been very busy today, we went and picked up the birthmother today and spent all day with her and the transalator, we just now got back from dropping them off. Very humbling is all I know to say, so many stories they shared with me from life in the Marshall Islands and I could not help it I broke down and they said dont cry God is with us.I told them if I was rich they would never have to worry again but how sad it is to know their is thousands of other people like her and there is nothing I can do but pray for them and Love the children. Resiana's birthmother was so humble, We took her to walmart today and let her pick out some clothes, she was very hesitant and I just had to pick something up and say what about this and she would just say ok.We are trying to get her the necessary paperwork so she can be a citizen and be able to find work here in the America, she has lived here in Hawaii for several years hoping to have a better life but has not been able to get a job because she does not have the necessary paperwork.Resiana is amazing, I fiqured she would be so withdrawn and afraid but she is the very opposite she is another Caden she laughs all the time and when she gets excited she starts tslking real fast in Marshalesse,She speaks very good english but her and her birthmother always spoke marshalesse to each other.I kinda hate that I will not be able to help her retain her other language but of course we do not know how to speak it, they did teach me a few words and I will teach them to Carter also. It is beyond wonderful the way we can feel the hand of God over here, we were driving in the van today and I felt like singing them a song, so Michael and I sang Thank You Lord For Your Blessings On Me and I could feel the presense of the Lord. When we got done, the transalator told me "I feel the spirit and I am not even a christian", the birthmother had silent tears flowing down her cheeks. Our emotions are crazy right now, it took every thing I had not to rack with grief, I did break down but I refrained from wailing, gut wrenching stories. To think she has never known life as we have. I will carry her in my heart forever.Today may have been the last time she will see Resiana and she knew that...when I went into the store with the translator.. Michael, Resiana, and her birthmother was in the van, and Resiana climbed in the back of the van with her birthmother and they began to speak Marshallesse and her birthmom took her dirty and ragged purse and pulled out some braclets and a handful of change and gave it to Resiana, I can hardly see thru my tears to write this..I am forever changed..I gotta go to emotional..Love you all and thank you for the prayers!!
