Homestudy completed!!
Feeling blessed!
We have finished our home study!! Another step closer to bringing our little girl home. It's those small steps that encourage you to keep going. We are now finished with our home study and will be sending off our I-600a form to USCIS. This is our advanced petition for approval of adopting an orphan. Our boys are so excited about having another little sister and I can't think of better big brothers for our little girl to have than Champe and Eli.
We are working on our funds for our adoption now. We know God is the ultimate provider and we are trusting in that!! If you don't know it, when my hubby Mark isn't working at the church doing all things visual, (video, web, print) he's doing creative things with wood. He loves being creative. We have opened an Etsy shop and are selling a few of Mark's creations to help with the cost.
Please stop by!

We are grateful that God is putting us on this journey and are thankful we have wonderful friends and family to share it with.
We love you!

Kari's post sent me over to your blog today, via your Etsy shop. I met her 2 years ago just before a blogging conference.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to wish you well in your journey. We adopted our son from Japan 6 years ago, and today is his first day of 1st Grade! Where does the time go?! He is the light of our lives! We are so blessed to be his Mommy and Daddy.
Prayers for strength and patience in your journey. It is so hard to wait, but all will be worth it when you have that beautiful girl in your arms!
