These are the words spoken to me so loud and clear by my 12 year old. I will admit I sometimes want to quit and run the other way as fast as I can BUT in our home we have taught our kids to never quit on anything they are doing. You might not be the best at what you are doing and you might find out that you don't love what you are doing but you at least finish it out and try.
If you choose to play a sport and you sign up, then you finish the season.
If you choose to take dance and you sign up, you have to go through recital.
If you want to play piano then you practice.
And the list goes on. I don't mind if they change their little minds which of course happens when you are trying to find what you love but you don't just quit.
So with that, how can I just quit "I CAN'T" I have to finish this season in my life.

How true! You don't know how many times I have prayed for God to close the door in this adoption if it's not meant to be so I can just get on with my life.
