I'll only be blogging from my living room for a few more weeks ... because we will be holding our sweet children and loving on them in less than a month! We are so excited :)
Here are our sweet kiddos, all in "one" portrait ... until we can get back home and have our new portraits done by one of my favorite local photographers, By Him For Him Photography. I cannot wait, honestly. After we had them done last year, I could see the spots left open for our two new faces. Seriously, I look at the picture and can see exactly where they ought to be! But anyhow...here they are...our six kiddos:

If you want to pray, here are the requests we are constantly bringing before God:
- Perfect timing, for each and every step in the process
- For our four kiddos who will stay behind, not to miss us and to have fun
- For us, who have never left them, to not have broken hearts
- For our new kiddos, to be open to receiving our love
- For bonding to be smooth, and attachment swift
- For favor when we stand before the judge
- For the fastest possibly processing of all papers (see first request though, which trumps this one!)
- For a safe trip there and home
And if you want to help with support, here's what you can do:
- Make a tax deductible donation to our family grant via Reece's Rainbow (consider mailing a check, to save paypal fees if the gift is larger) ... and every $$ donated right now goes towards our $500 matching grant!
- Go SHOPPING! We have a TON of gorgeous jewelry by PERFECT JOY DESIGNS that has been made to help us bring our kiddos home, and every penny comes to us :)
- Jump in and do a coin drive -- collect spare change from your home, car, pockets, and friends
- Have a yard sale that benefits our adoption, or a car wash, or host a party with one of the many home based businesses that donate (ask me for contact info -- we have Thirty-One, Usborne, Mary Kay, and more who will do this)
- For those who want to be more specific (some have asked!): we need two new car seats (we have to have certain ones to safely fit in our van, and that are the right sizes for our kiddos).
- Spread the word!!!
