WHOO HOO!!! And OH MY!

We have great news - our appointment is in two weeks! We have literally a week 1/2 to prepare and to raise the remaining funds which will go towards our plane tickets. I've never been one to throw a pity party but funds for plane tickets would be a blessing. To say we are stretched thin would be an understatement. And I hate asking for help, and especially money. There are other things we are having to pay for (here) while we are out of the country and the money pit is looking kind of low! It's been a long road but so worth it.

Saying YES to adoption means saying NO to so many worldy things, saying YES when the rest of the world asks WHY. Saying YES to God when nothing seems to make sense. Saying YES when God asked us to go...EVEN though the MONEY was no where in sight.

We are walking by faith, not by sight...a beautiful sweet lady reminded me of that this morning.

We continue to walk by faith...even when we can't see. God is doing wonderful things and working on a story of redemption.

Little One...we are coming.

The other great news is that an awesome organization Hope To Home has designed a shirt for our adoption! Please click the link and consider buying a shirt or passing on the link. Once you get to our site there is a code to paste onto blogs,etc. THANK YOU for your prayers, and support.
