I feel so blessed!
I recevied a call yesterday from our church...our Pastor wants me to say something at our Mother's Day service. Me...Colette...Me! I feel so blessed that he asked me! I will be up on stage the whole service...how much weight can i lose in 10 days????? LOL I am thinking if I don't eat starting tomorrow...have to have one more day before the big diet...I could lose...maybe 5 lbs.? do you think anyone would notice??? LOL I will be up there with 5 other women. We will be talking about how the lord has helped us be mothers...but I don't have any children I said and his assitant said..."yes we know...we would like you to speak about how the lord has helped you during your journey of adoption" Well...that I can do! If you know me...you know I instanly thought...THIS IS A SIGN! But what kind of sign is it? I was thinking last night...Maybe the lord, knows that someone will be there who might be thinking about terminating a pregnancy or know of someone who is, or maybe there is a couple in the audience who has been struggling through there adoption process or IF and maybe I will help them find their way...or MAYBE...there is someone out there who knows of someone who is pregnant looking to place their baby up for adoption and there we are! What ever the sign is...I will embrace this with all my body and follow his lead. I feel so blessed that I was chosen to do this. Please say a prayer for me that I am able to get through this! Hugs

Congrats on the invite to speak in church. I know how much that means to you and I am so excited for you. I can't wait to hear what you will say, and don't worry about the weight. You are beautiful just as you are.
Ditto that, you are great the way you are!
I think choosing you to speak is perfect! I think it's the perfect way to address what being a mother will mean to you! Take a deep breath, you will be fine!

I can't think of someone I would want more to talk about adoption. You are great at getting your message across in a good way! And don't forget - you are beautiful - no matter what you weigh. You always look so put together! I wish I had the energy to do that - makeup, hair, nice clothes. Give me my "nice" jeans and I am ready to go out!
What a great thing to do!!! You are a natural, after all you work with the public, and you are not shy!!! God bless u hon!
Congrats and good luck!
