SNOW

Our oldest son is a senior this year and he needs to
get his senior pictures done but he kept saying " why
can't it snow, I want my pictures taking while it's snowing"
So of course we woke up to a  white covering on everything !
And mom was asked to go out and snap some pictures.

 The kids were all excited  and I did not have the heart to tell them
 that the snow was not going to stay, it was going to warn up later.

I have been thinking about all the things I am thankful for and there
is a huge list but most of all our AWESOME GOD !!! 

ADOPTION: next is fingerprinting, I-800

PA

Yesterday we received PA for our little girl.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We can't decide which way to spell her name
Rebecca or Rebekah ??

Faith, Hope and now love. Her Chinese name/sign
means love !!          

Her SN is new to us, talk about stepping out in faith.

I am still in awe.  GOD IS GOOD !!!


Now to figure out how much extra money we will need to bring her home.

TIME

Wow, time has just flown by......
We received our Agency and Social Worker approval
for 2 children. And currently we are awaiting PA  for
our little girl who will be called Rebekah.

So blessed !

NOVEMBER

November is National Adoption Month !

Today  is Orphan Sunday !


If you have ever visited an orphanage, it will pull on your 
heart strings ! And when you leave you still see the faces
of the children who wanted you to hold them, play with
them and the faces of the children who are in need of medical care,
all the kinds of therapy, or just food. The workers do the best they can
but it is not enough for most of these children. They need families !!!


Proverbs 24:12 tells us, "Once our eyes are opened we cannot pretend 
we do not know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our 
 souls knows we know and holds us responsible to act."

"My friends, adoption is redemption.  It's costly ,

 exhausting, expensive, and outrageous.  Buying

 back lives costs so much.  When God set out to

 redeem us, it killed Him."
