April 13th Update


Hello everyone! 
First I want to say we are SO sorry for not updating everyone before now. Our plan was to do an update on Easter that would let everyone know where we are in our adoption process. I am going to do this post in bullet points. 
  • We are still being blown away and extremely grateful for all of the generous gifts we have received from so many folks partnering with us in our journey to adopt. It has been amazing to see an increase in the balance of our ‘Adoption Fund’ savings account. Thank you for being apart of our adoption financially. 
  • Our home study is DONE!!! That means that all of our paper work is done for every possible state in which we could adopt.
  • We have completed our ‘Profile Book’ as well. This is a book filled with pictures of our family and details about us and our kids. The purpose of a profile book is for potential birth moms to be able to read and learn about our family. The hope is that a birth mom will see our profile book and choose us to raise the child that she will give birth to. 
  • One more way we need you all to partner with us. We need you to pray! Here is the list of things to please pray for. 
    • The health of the birth mom during her pregnancy. 
    • The health of our baby
    • That we would trust God as He writes our family’s story.
    • Pray for the grants we will be applying for. 
Thank you so much for playing such an enormous part of our adoption!
