Christi's Story

Life Well, aside from working on my plan for world peace, defeating hunger and a cure for AIDS, cancer and mean-spirited individuals, (alas, I'm afraid I haven't changed) wonderful things have been taking place in my life!! Namely, my precious daughter and I have been reunited and it has absolutely ROCKED my world. I had visited the adoption agency the summer before and felt it was imminent. A year later, on Easter Sunday, 23 years after trying desperately to find her, I received an email from Classmates from a young woman inquiring if I had given birth to beautiful red-headed little girl in 1983. It absolutely has changed my life. We spoke on the phone for the first time that afternoon. I was driving down the road when she called. I had to pull over. I've met her precious family as well, just awesome people - so loving and made me feel like one of their own. Trying to put into words how this has blessed and continues to bless would be impossible. Those of you that walked with me during my pregnancy with Sam know just what a grand and glorious day this is. Sam and I each have a son, and it ...Expand for more
is so cool to be able to relate to each other as parents. We're really more like sisters, b/c we're so much alike. She's like a best friend. Anyway, SO much to say, but of anything I could share, the best thing is that God loves you and absolutely will turn everything you felt were mistakes or failure to your good, if you will put your life in His hands and just trust Him. It is NEVER too late - no matter the situation. Just say, God, I can't do this on my own anymore. Please forgive me for screwing things up (or whatever your situation). Jesus, I want you to be Lord of my life. Change me and put me in the right direction. Bring people into my life that will teach me about you. And He WILL!! He changed me -- COMPLETELY. He has taken EVERY situation - from cancer to divorce -- my happiness and peace is not based on my mind's conclusions. It's based on my trust in Him. He never lets anyone down. If you get a second, send me an email. Would so love to hear your thoughts and what the heck you've been up to!! You are loved, Crispie p.s. Ta Price and I eloped on 08.01.09. : )
