Praises!

First of all I wanted to say thank you to those of you faithfully praying for us.  I am not exaggerating when I say that we have had such a peace about this adoption.  We don't have the entire international fee in place but we know without a doubt that God will make that happen.  God has blessed us and reminded us that He is taking care of things.  We had money from friends and family trickling in at a steady pace for about two weeks, it was so fun and exciting and humbling at the same time.  He is Good.  We have also been able to really enjoy this process, which is something I would not have been able to say truthfully several months ago.  

Today the Psychologist called, the actual doctor, how weird is that?  I usually have to go through at least two people to get answers from a  doctor.  Well anyway, that doesn't matter.  He called because he got the letters done!!!!  Nate and I are able to go tomorrow to pick them up AND I'm hoping that while we're out we can get the dossier docs county certified.  After that we send the dossier in to our agency, it goes through state certification then it's off the Haiti!  Keep praying that all the documents will be accepted.  

We are praising the Lord for having the $2350 to send in the dossier, it's an amount separate from the international fee we are trying to raise funds for so the amount on our fundraising gauge is strictly for that, which is so great.  

As for our family challenge, so far this month we have been able to save $390.  I don't think that we'll be able to save more than the last time we did this, which was $500.  I was hoping to save $600 but oh well I'm still happy to have something to show for all our hard work.  This money will not be going to the international fee, it will be used to pay for the state certification process and translation of the dossier.   We are still very thankful.

Now I am off to update the puzzle blog and add the eleven pieces we got last week!!  If you feel led to help us give an orphan a forever family please use the donate button or use the link to jump over to our puzzle blog and sponsor a piece or more for just $10 a piece!!  Thanks!
