A whisper in our heart has led to an adventure

Check out this Fundraiser/Raffle

A local family who has 3 bio kids & 3 adopted children from China is in process to bring home another Special Needs girl from China.  They are having a fun raffle for an I-Pad 2 to help them with their dossier costs.  Check out their story here: www.mattmandi.blogspot.com


Our homefront news:  Looks like we will be leaving next weekend, not this weekend to unite and bring home Abel and Feven Faith.  So I will be praising God for my redemption here in FW, not Rome or Addis, then busily getting ready to leave and hopefully come home Mother's Day with our precious additions.
 Check out this update from a family who is there now and yesterday delivered a care package for us:  Rachel wrote:




"Packages have been delivered, cards translated, video and pictures taken, and your photos LOVED ON! They are just thrilled! Internet is slow and poor but will talk and send them when we return."
So excited to get our arms around them!! 


Another neat post from a family who recently traveled to meet their girl for the first time.  I love how she shares the why for adoption for many people.  : www.sandersonadoption.blogspot.com/
