Dossier Sent Off, Headbands Fundraiser, and More!

Wednesday the 24^th of September was a huge day for our family. We sent our dossier to our agency AGCI.  We already have heard back from our agency and we only had one correction on it. We forgot to sign of passports (opps hee hee). We signed them and they will be in the mail tomorrow. This is the last of our paperwork for a while.  We are now waiting patiently on God’s timing. We will be on the waiting list very soon! We have had a lot of people praying and supporting us. We would like to thank you all. The next day after we sent in our dossier, we came home to a gift on our porch. A jar of pickles saying “congrats you’re officially paper pregnant.“

  This same friend, Georgene, has adopted two beautiful children from China. She knows all about the emotions with adoption and has been such a dear friend with her support. Georgene has such a passion for orphans and wanted to help me with funding some of our adoption. She has croqueted headbands for me to sell. Georgene donated a ton of headbands she has made. She dropped a huge bag off to me at the shop and asked for nothing in return. She is such an amazing, talented, woman with a huge heart. These headbands are so adorable. I’m selling them for $12 at the shop, or I’ll also ship them out if you want them mailed. Every bit of the money will go toward our adoption. We would greatly appreciate any sales for we are now open to take siblings up to two and we know that it comes with a cost. There are all kinds of colors and also I can buy yarn and ask her  to make other colors on your request. Thank you for all of support it is greatly appreciated. Here are some pictures of these adorable headbands. I can take closer up picture if you request.

 

 

 

SOON TO BE AN ORPHAN NO MORE!!

This update I don’t have a lot of new information on the adoption. We are waiting for our home study and dossier to be completely finalized. We are hoping and praying it should be done real soon. This is the point that I ask God to grant me some much needed patience.

I do have some good news though! Remember the little boy who opened my heart to adopting?  Yep, V, the cutest little Ukrainian I have ever seen. Well precious V is going to meet his amazing new family very soon. His family has booked their flights for September 20. They should be in Ukraine in time for their appointment on the 24^th. I can’t even explain how excited I am for all of them. V’s family are truly amazing people.  I have been following their blog faithfully. Their journey has not been easy but the reward at the end will soon shine. Soon V will find out that he has a family that will be there to love him and bring him home. V is also going to find out that his best friend, S that he has grown up with in the orphanage, is also going home with him. Yes you read that right. This amazing family is adopting both of them. V’s best friend very soon will be his brother. I wish you all could see the huge smile on my face when I just typed thatJ!!!!!! I’m now asking for all of my blog readers to please pray for V&S’s family tonight before you lay your head down for bed. Please ask God to be with them.

I’m going to end this blog update with praying for the Selman family (V&S’s family)

Please God I pray, grant them strength, wisdom, and patience.

Please God I pray, keep them healthy and safe in their travels.

I pray Lord, please keep the doors open so that the Selman family can bring those two little angels home, for we know as adopting parents how easy it is for a door to close in this journey.

I pray Lord just put your loving arms around them, for we know you have the entire world in your hands!.......by the way I love that song J………..PRAYER WARRIORS START PRAYING!!!!!!
