Happy Birthday Wendy! | Reece's Rainbow Waiting Child

Happy Birthday to a Special Little Girl!

Well loved...

An orphanage favorite...

Sweet Wendy is 7 years old today (June 25)!

(Though since it's evening here it's probably June 26 in her country now...)

But her birthday is not such good news for her...

It means the day is drawing ever closer...

To a very frightening day...

The day she is transferred to a mental institution...

The day she'll leave her favorite nannies.

In the institution she probably will no longer be a favorite...

She has a big chance of being bedridden and ignored...

Left alone with her thoughts with very little stimulation...

Oh sweet girl...

What a sad day that will be for you...

But will anyone notice?

Will anyone know?

It's time to shout for you...

It's time to tell the world that you are waiting...

It's time for your Mama and Papa to see you...

It's time for you to be chosen and loved...

Time to go home where the threat of the institution can be removed...

Home where you can learn what it's like to have forever love...

And a family of your very own!

I hope that day comes soon!

I hope next June 25 you can celebrate your 8th birthday with your very OWN family!

Never forget you are special...

No matter what anyone tells you!

You are a child of God...

Your life matters...

You are special!
