I was reflecting the other day on how amazed TJ and I were at the outpouring of support we received after sending out our early Christmas card. Not only did our friends and family join us in prayer, but they also joined us financially and both of those are such blessings! As I was thinking about this, it occurred to me that I never officially posted about how your support has helped us. From the time we sent out our Christmas card (right around Thanksgiving) up to today, we have raised $4,206! That is amazing! Thank you to all of you that are supporting our family and our adoption, whether its financially in prayer, or just in being there as a friend when we need someone to talk to about this crazy process! You will never know how much your support means to us and how much it inspires us to keep going when we get bogged down in the details of the paperwork and the process.
After making the switch to China, we've had to make some changes to our home study. So, we are NOW finally finished with our home study and it should be sent to Immigration this week! The movement in this whole process is so up and down. One minute you are racing to finish some piece of paperwork and the next minute you are stuck waiting for a response for months. So, as we move into a time of waiting again, we are looking for ways to continue to fund our adoption. We are completely open to any suggestions, so please feel free to send them our way. You can all continue to use the shopping buttons at the top of this blog to support us on amazon, buying coffee or restaurant gift cards. And, our Adopt Together profile is also still up and running for tax-deductible donations.
Thank you for joining our family in our process to adopt a child into our forever family, so that they may forever know unconditional love for us and from their Heavenly Father!
