LSS Update

Two weeks ago, while Hubby and I were on vacation, LSS called!    She told me that she missed us and wanted to come see us.  I explained to her that we were far away on vacation, but that as soon as we got back, we would plan a visit.  LSS told me that she is now back with her mom.  LSS has called us every other day since that first phone call!

Yesterday, I talked to her mom for the first time in a year.  Her mom told me that she has “gotten her life together” and that her boyfriend (the father of the baby that is due in July) is helping her stay on track.  She said that she is excited because she is a “stay-at-home-mommy” now.

We talked for about ten minutes and to be completely honest, she does indeed sound better than the last time I talked to her.  She sounds more coherent.  Her voice is much less gravelly.  Perhaps she really has cleaned her life up.  Perhaps this will only last for the pregnancy.  Perhaps it will be permanent.  Perhaps the new baby’s daddy will leave them like LSS’s daddy did and she will return to her old ways.  Only God knows.

But what I know is that we are getting LSS this weekend!!  And will get to stay in LSS’s life at least for a little while longer.

My hope and prayer is that LSS’s mommy will find the only One who can solve all her problems:  Jesus Christ!

Please God!  Let me be a light that leads her to You!
