Book Description
With a little faith and optimism, a desire to adopt, and a single three-letter word, God changed our lives and our hearts forever. Making Me Mommy is about our family’s journey to parenthood, from the pain of infertility to the trial of fostering, the fear of losing a child we had grown to love, and the day-to-day joy that comes from little hands and feet. With not a child in sight, and only halfway through the foster care training to even qualify for opening our home, we stepped out in faith and bought a crib. We readied that baby bed with blankets and stuffed animals, and then prayed nightly for God to fill it. Fill it He did! Over the next six years, four babies occupied that crib and filled our home, and our hearts, with a love you can’t possibly know exists until you love your child.

More Than My Scars
Author: Kechi Okwuchi
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493434055
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The first thing you will notice when you meet Kechi Okwuchi is her scars. One of just two survivors of a devastating plane crash that killed more than 100 people, 16-year-old Kechi was left with third-degree burns over 65 percent of her body. More Than My Scars is her incredible story. A story of not just surviving impossible odds but thriving in a world that is too often caught up with how we look on the outside rather than seeing that our true value is within. Now in her early 30s, Kechi has spent the last 16 years refusing to be defined by her trauma. Follow her as she decides for herself what role her scars will play in her life before society decides for her. Her strong sense of identity, rooted in seeing herself the way God sees her, has allowed her to live authentically in a world that constantly seeks to define us by its ever-changing (and ever-shallow) standards. Kechi's story will inspire you to love and accept yourself as you are and confidently present your true self to the world.
