We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life.But those who make their journey home across time & miles,growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them,are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands.

Garage Sales, Ice Cream and New Friends

Well, our second garage sale was less than productive so we are going to pack everything back up and try again next spring. Tomorrow we are having our ice-cream social, please pray for good weather and good sales. We do have some good news...we just learned that another couple in our church is also adopting a child from Ethiopia. One of our pasters got our support letter and emailed us with the couple's info, so we are hoping to get in touch with them this weekend or next. It will be really nice to have a couple so close to talk with about the adoption. They are adopting a little girl who is older I think 6-8 years old or so, but they are going over this fall to get her so that will be very exciting to see. It is also nice that they have already been through the process and will be able to give us pointers along the way. Thats about it for now. Check out the new links we have and if you have time watch the great video on Ethiopia by clicking this link http://www.allgodschildren.org/about/videos/ and then click on"Hanna's Hope Ethiopia" Thanks for all your prayers!

Wow, you are sooo organized! (unlike me!) Stacy and I had such a nice time talking with you both about the adoption process. It just goes to show how God is working with us all in very special,unique ways; and he can use anyone willing to listen. We will be praying for your adoption journey and we truely hope you find as much joy as we have along the way. I can't wait for the day when our Ethiopian born children will meet! Many Blessings & Prayers! ~Julia
