Just the mere need to bond was so needed, and here she was ready to do it "by mysewf!" I appreciate your quickly noting that she needed to learn dependence on you as we must accept and recognize the need for our dependence on God. Beautiful analogy here. Glad to hear that progerss is/has been made!Sherrey Meyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04715466245851050537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7134046314047958889.post-81612497354628746192012-06-30T12:40:14.064-07:002012-06-30T12:40:14.064-07:00We adopted our daughter when she was two and a hal...We adopted our daughter when she was two and a half. She wanted to do everything "by mysewf." It was so frustrating while attempting to bond! I learned a great parallel between my relationship with her and my relationship with God. Her independence was way over the top for a two year old. I saw that she needed to learn dependance on us so that she learn dependance on God. It has been a delicate balancing act for all of us, but I think we are getting it... five years later!Tereasahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06702809283384481445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7134046314047958889.post-47620771736787324632012-06-28T09:17:40.397-07:002012-06-28T09:17:40.397-07:00Lauren, again thanks for the invitation to link up...Lauren, again thanks for the invitation to link up with Hearts&Homes and for welcoming me so warmly.
