"It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish"

Today would have been the day we received our China referral. Our LID was 3/7/06! But as you know our beautiful Faith has been with us for a little over a year. We found her on the special needs waiting list and brought her home in December 2007.


So today I am celebrating with all the families who have been waiting for 3 years to see the precious faces of their children. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Here was Faith's referral picture . . . .


We are beginning a new stage in the adoption process - THE FINANCES! We are now at a point in our adoption where all the numerous fees are beginning to be due. This is always an exciting time but also very stressful. It is always cool to see how God is going to provide the funds. For example, yesterday out of nowhere we received a check in the mail reimbursing us for an overpayment on some medical bills. It was not much when you think about the overall cost of the adoption but every penny helps.

If you are interested in blessing our family with the gift of financial support please see the left column of our blog for instructions to make a tax deductible donation.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!
