August 2010- God places a foster child in my 3rd grade class.
The same month, McKenzie is conceived.
May 2011- I've spent 9 months getting to know this little girl, what her life has been like, and what foster care looks like through her eyes.
In May, McKenzie is born.
September 2011- I have to make a statement to the investigator about my student from last year. At home when asking Mike, "Where are all the Christian families? Why aren't they doing foster care?" I hear the Holy Spirit say, "Where are you?"
October 2012- For over a year, I keep pushing thoughts of foster care aside. But in October, I am studying the book of James. Chapter 4 verse 17, Remember it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it, convicts me. I know what God called us to do.
At 17 months old, McKenzie enters foster care.
October 2014- We meet McKenzie.
September 2015- She becomes our daughter.
