I-800A Approved!

We have jumped through another hoop! After anxiously waiting 56 days, we have been approved by immigration to adopt our children.  That means we are another step closer to getting our boys!  From here, our paperwork is sent for certification to three government agencies.  After that, it is sent to China.  This process altogether is another 3-4 week process.  This time of waiting is very difficult.  I know I have these boys waiting for me and they need me as much as I need them. I am so ready to get them here to be a part of my family and cuddle them! I am also so anxious to get them seen by doctors and helped out physically.  On another note, I am not allowed to post what their disability is or their Chinese name.  So, if you ever wonder about these two things that is why! I can share that God equipped me to take on their disability and I feel confident that I can help them.  Please continue to pray for our boys, family, and finances.  Thank you for following and praying for us.

Give 10 Save 2

We are starting a fundraising effort in order to help with the costs of adoption of our boys Alec and Anderson.  Our estimated costs for adoption are around $42,000.  We are believers in the power of God and know He will provide.  All money donated will go towards our adoption costs and will ultimately save 2 boys from a being institutionalized.  We know money is tight for so many in today's society.  Please, consider a small donation in the amount of $10 to help. If there is no way you can give $10, please be in prayer for our family, our boys, and the financial responsibilities of adoption.  We setting a goal of $7,000 by October 20 which is our youngest son's birthday (Anderson). I know this is ambitious for our first fundraising project, but we are on a tight schedule and the money is needed by the different governments and agencies.  Give 10 Save 2
