Day 2!

So, here's what we've got...
...and here's what we need.
Adoption is ridiculously expensive, ya'll know that! And we know that. The good news ~ God can afford it!!! We knew from the beginning of our race for Joy that we had $0 set aside and would have to fund raise every dollar necessary to bring her home...and we're okay with that! God has opened doors to new fundraising opportunities and refreshed some old ideas.

Our first day of Oktoberfest left us a little discouraged. We still have a trailer full of mums and haven't even made back what we paid for them. But God! He was with us yesterday, and He will be with us today. As we prepare to leave, we are praising Him for what He's going to do today, and for the unseen things He did yesterday. We so appreciate your prayers!

...What if some did not have faith? Will their lack of faith nullify God's faithfulness? Not at all! ... Rom 3:3-4

I so wish you were closer to me and I would gladly purchase some mums! Praying God sends the finances you need at the perfect time for your precious family.

I was woken from a dream this morning that God supplied all your financial needs and we were doing the Happy Dance together!!

Oooh, I'll do the happy dance with you too when (not if) it happens!

It always seems like little obstacles have to pop up in our way to make us either quit or become more determined than ever to fulfill our mission of adoption. Right after we committed to adopting last month, our transmission went out on our car and our stove is down to 2 burners now- uffda!! Thank goodness you have such a strong faith, and you just move past the obstacles and keep plugging on. You have a family full of "treasures" that prove you can and will prevail!!
