For those of you who know us, you know that Jode, the children and I have felt for years that our family is not yet complete. I know, I hear you, we have seven children at home! However, when God lays it upon your heart, it's hard to ignore, at least not for long!
Inasmuch, we are once again pursuing a child (or two) from an Eastern European country, one which we love and have missed. We look forward to going back and seeing those who have become like our second family.
As you know, adoption is expensive. Not many families have $35,000 extra laying around. We defiantly don't, but we know our God is faithful, and experience has told us that what He leads us to, He will also supply all that we need to accomplish it.
If you would like to come along on this journey, and support our adoption efforts, please hit that donate button. Your help, and prayers, are greatly appreciated.
We will be adding updated posts as we go along. For now, we are about half way through our home study, which are the initial documents, huge bundle of documents, which have to be amassed to prove that we, our home and everything about us makes us good candidates to adopt again. Our next step will be to send our I600a documents and fees to USCIS, the department of Immigration. We need to do that ASAP since they seem to be taking a bit longer than usual to review and approve.
Thank you in advance for following along!
