Debbie- I read your book over Thanksgiving week. I couldn’t
put it down. I have so many wonderful memories of Roma. I speak of him often
and had actually just mentioned him to my dad a week or so before Mrs. Verdi
told me about your book. I had no idea the story behind the adoption…what I
knew was so limited. The entire book was so moving and inspirational. While I
don’t feel a call to adopt, I do completely understand the need to give it over
to God and listen to what He’s telling you. Thank you for writing this. I hope
more people will read it and feel His power and love for all of us. Please give
Roma my love. –Beth, Roma’s third grade
teacher
My husband gave it to me for Christmas. I CAN’T PUT IT DOWN!
I’m halfway through it. You are a gifted writer and have a beautiful spirit.
Thank you for sharing both with so many. –Jeanne
Debbie, you are an incredible story teller! I felt like I
was sitting with you on the plane and walking next to you throughout your
journey…I love your ability to capture the imagination…you paint such vivid pictures
with your words. And what a beautiful story! I want more! I can’t wait for your
next journey of adventure to begin! –Dawn
I LOVED the book…not just LIKED…I’ve recommended it where
ever I can. Thank you for writing that part of your life…I like the parts where
God tells you what to do…I have those conversations also. What a shame about
Putin putting a ban on Americans adopting. –Carol
I loved the book. Debbie, you are so inspirational. It was
powerful, loving, heartbreaking and funny! Great job! –Kathy
I loved reading your book! I didn’t want to part with my
copy so I picked up another one to give to my friend that is adopting soon.
Thanks so much for sharing your story! –Katie
Took me less than a day to finish your book! I couldn’t put
it down. The Michael family was truly blessed, all six of you! –Linda
Debbie, I finished the book this week! It was great! I have
a synopsis of your story in my sermon this week. The passage says “Those who listen
to my voice, know the truth” which is Jesus talking to Pilate..Christ the King
Sunday. Your book is about your listening to God..and as you said your
obedience to God..It’s also about kingdom building here on earth..and your
adoption of Roma was definitely kingdom building..taking care of the
orphans..Great book..I love your story and your faithfulness to God and your
family! Love you too! –Sharon
An amazing journey of faith, an honest look at the emotional
piece adoption and heartwarming story of a family and a little boy who comes
part of their family! –Jana
Hi Debbie, I absolutely loved your book!! Your story was
amazing… So heart warming and inspirational!! I hope you will write a sequel …
I can’t wait to hear what happens next!! –Ellen
Wonderful story! I see a sequel. –Debbie
Wow! Debbie captured some of the most unique moments of the
older child adoption experience! As a member of the ‘secret society’ of moms
lucky enough to celebrate our children in this special way, she did a fabulous
job relaying her special story. I sat on the same runway at Dulles in the same
month if 2002 going to Russia for my second Russian daughter. In my case, as in
hers, it was a God thing. I honor her for getting it written down and publishing
for all to share! Great job Debbie! –Maureen
This book is so honest, so genuine and is so filled with
love and light and laughter that you will find it difficult to put it down.
Debbie’s journey into the heart of the Divine Will is a blessing we can all
share. –Anne
I have just read the 1st chapter and already have
to take a break. I relate to your feelings of fear and panic of the unknown…blind
faith and blind trust in God has been very scary for me many times. I had to
take a break to reprocess those feelings. I hope that makes sense. You write
beautifully and my break is over. Chapter 2, here I come! –Ann
This terrific book shines as an example of our God’s perfect
path for each life. Regardless of our fear, reluctance, and feelings of
inadequacies, His desire to bless us is trustworthy. Debbie chronicles this
works of God beautifully!
