We are excited to announce that we are adding one more pretty special little girl to our family!!
It was about a year and a half ago that God laid on our hearts the deisre to adopt.
We had learned about the many orphans in the Democratic Republic of Congo,
and of the horrible things happening in that country.
So...we had a plan. Adopt a little boy [or two] from the DRC.
But...God had different plans.
He said "wait"
The agency we had chosen was not open for applications to the DRC,
and we needed to save up the money needed for a home study & the application fee.
and we needed to save up the money needed for a home study & the application fee.
so...we waited.
Fast forward to this past spring.
We found out about a sweet little girl in Ghana who needed a pretty major surgery.
We wanted to help.
So we supported the fundraiser, and prayed for her.
And...slowly, we found ourselves falling in love.
First our youngest, then our oldest, who was able to travel to Ghana to meet this sweet girl.
And...the rest of us followed. Head over heals in love with this sweet, sweet girl.
We knew that God was calling us to take the steps to add her to the our family!!
Making us a household of 5 amazing ladies & and one pretty lucky daddy!!
Our sweet girl has some physical disabilities. She will be having surgery
in Ghana...but she will need some rehabilitation and further surgery. It is our
hope that we are able to get her home as soon as possible.
We know that this will not be an easy journey, but we also know that we are not in control.
This is Gods amazing story...and we are just blessed to be a part of it.
Would you please consider being part of our daughters story?
We have started a fundraiser on Pure Charity to help raise the funding needed to make this
adoption a success. We have already saved enough for our application fee, and home study.
Our next goal is $8000 which will cover our agency fees and will bring us one step closer to
bringing this sweet girl home to her momma, daddy and big sisters!
Every dollar donated is tax deductible.
Every dollar is important.
And every dollar will make a huge difference to our family!
We are certain that God paved the way for us to find our sweet girl and we are also
certain that He will move mountains to bring her home.
We ask that you please share this with your family and friends so they can be part of this story too!
