A page turner. A hope giver. A life changer. Lucky are those who read these pages---their hearts will explode with the joy that we all truly get to be the luckiest of all.I absolutely love this book. I love Heather Avis dearly, and her warmth and passion and fierce love come through on every page. This is a story about adoption, about family, about special needs . . . and really, more than anything, its a story about faith. Im so incredibly inspired by the way Heather listens to Gods voice, and as I put down this book, I prayed for more of that kind of faith in my own life.If youve ever felt overwhelmed by the task before you, you will find a companion in this book. This book details the incredible adventure of the Avis family as they face some of lifes greatest challenges and turn them into beautiful opportunities. It gives each of us hope in our own journey full of insurmountable odds.Heather is a modern-day superwoman goddess warrior with a heart that is brave and true. She doesnt pretend parenting is easy or that she hasnt faced darkness and been broken many times over. But she is honest. She chooses to risk every time. She chooses love every time, and even in the face of great struggle, she has said yes and jumped. Heathers face showed up for me the moment I was crumbling. I was scared for our daughter, and her words breathed hope right into my trembling soul. This book will make your heart and arms open wide. It may cause your family to grow in numbers or move you to hold close the babies you have---plus ugly cry. It may cause all these things. This book is a testament to the power of a mothers love.When I first met Heather Avis, I was drawn to her familys story because we share a love for foster care and adoption. But The Lucky Few is about so much more. Heather shows us what it means to seek after the heart of God, and she inspires us to do the same.
