We are so grateful for all of the generosity that has been poured out on our family and all of the support in bringing sissy home! We could NOT have done any of this without all of the support. Our expectations for our family golf tournament were exceeded and we were able to pay off a large portion of our fees because of the holes sponsored, teams registered and donations given. What a GREAT God we serve and what great people he has used to aid in our process!
These past two weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions! We were matched almost a month ago and after much praying and seeking wisdom we turned in our paperwork to officially begin our legal adoption of our daughter. Soon after we sent in our paperwork we received an incredible email from Jeeah's Hope/Lifesong approving our match grant request! The funds raised at our golf tournament were MATCHED! This will allow up to pay off a LARGE portion of our balance so that we are one GIANT step closer to going to get sissy from Pune, India. We are taken back by the call of this organization to help families in their process to bring their sweet babies home! If you are looking to give to an incredible organization please look up lifesong and consider donating to such a wonderful cause!
As if that is not enough, God continues to amaze us! Guys, when God promises he delivers and He has made it abundantly clear that He is delivering on a promise made to myself and my husband long ago. We received a congratulations email from JSC approving us of a very generous grant! We are taken back and almost still in shock because these past two weeks have been filled with God's blessings one behind the other! Another incredible organization devoted to helping those called to foster and adopt bring their babies home! If you are looking to give to a wonderful cause look up JSC foundation and give today!
When beginning our process we knew God would guide and provide because we were sure of our calling. We know our family will not look like most and it makes us EXCITED! I love the uniqueness and the beauty of our diverse family. I can not wait to love her deep like we love Liam. I can not wait to see her and Liam become the best of friends. Lord thank you for your many blessings! Thank you for your Faithfulness!
NOT TO MENTION! We were connected with another family adopting from the SAME orphanage that our sweet daughter is at and they leave to pick up their darling baby in two weeks SO we get to send gifts to sissy when they leave in two weeks! We got sissy a audio book where Steven and I can record ourselves reading so she can hear our voice <3 I put a picture of all three of us in the front of the book so she can see us while she listens to our voice! HOW COOL!
God you are AWESOME!
