Program Update

Hey Guys, it's Bryan.  Em's been pretty good about updating the blog; me - not so much.  Anyway...some exciting news on the progam we're in: I received an e-mail from our adoption coordinator late last week stating that the agency we're with has not only expanded the number of placing agencies it's working with, but the program itself has now been expanded.  Instead of including just African American infants, the program will now include infants of every race.  The previously named "African American Infant Program" is now called the "Domestic Infant Program".  This means that our waiting time should be drastically reduced.  I have to admit; based on the time frame we were given, we thought we'd have our new little one by now, but we realize this is on God's time, not ours.  We are also excited about the changes to the program and trust in Him and His plan for us and our family.  Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we go through this process.  Thanks for taking the time to read this entry and to be a part of our adoption journey.

Thank you!

I'd like to thank Lisa K. who hosted a 31 party for me last week. She raised $77.00 for our adoption fund! How awesome is that! She did a catalog party for me and had 4 people purchase from her party. Her party was only $300. Every little bit helps! Thanks again Lisa you're awesome!

How to help

Working on some small fundraisers while we wait. Feels good to do small things like this, makes me feel like I'm one step closer to the finish line. So the fundraiser is 31 gifts. Here's the website: http://www.thirtyonegifts.com/Catalog/ Twenty five percent of the purchase goes towards our adoption fund. You can purchase one item or host a party. October's special is https://www.mythirtyone.com/content/specials.aspx and November and December's special are really great. Let me know if you're interested. These bags are great for that hard to buy for person on your list. Or great for yourself. =)
