We have an update on the grants we applied for, and it's great news!
We applied to five different grant organizations, and got grants from four of those organizations in different amounts - it's such a blessing, and now we're actually really close to our goal!
One of the grants is in partnership with Robert's parents' church, and is a matching grant. If you're interested in being a part of that, you can check it out here: https://mystory.lifesongfororphans.org/stories/stowers-adoption/

In other news, our friend Cole shot a few pictures for us last weekend for our profile book, and we are super grateful for his patience for us non-models.

It feels so amazing to finally be within range (less than $10K) of the nearly $40K that we needed for this entire process. We're so thankful to those of you who have supported us through financial donations, buying Noonday items, prayers, and advice! We are close!
