Family means finding a new and personal "normal."
In 1953, it was unheard of for a single woman to adopt, but determination and a mother's love made it possible. The day Mabel Weaver brought Thelma home changed everything.
Years later, Thelma resolves to find her missing pieces by putting faith in the "lanterns" God has been sending to guide her way. With His help, Thelma gains an understanding of the obstacles she faces, as well as the wisdom of turning to God to find yourself.
Through letters, diary entries, and anecdotes shared by friends and family, Thelma not only learns what it means to be whole but discovers new ways of learning to live with abandonment issues, how to stay positive in hard times, and what adoption is like for a single parent.
From her birth to discovering her biological family and everything after, Thelma shares the glory of God's wisdom and the influence of healthy family relationships on self-esteem.
