Doll show and people God put in our path

Doll show today we did ok sold a few dolls and made $285 and we had fun. we met so many people that were also adopting or had adopted. It was fun to get to talk to people and I know that God put them in our path for a reason, a really great reason. The first lady I met said she was adopting thru foster care and when I said Reece's Rainbow she said she knew of Reece's Rainbow, it just felt like this really neat connection between us, I know that at some point God will put her back in my life. she bought a doll and actually paid $25 more for it as a donation for Josiah how cool is that. Then another lady we met, she had a really sweet baby on her back in a pack and he was falling asleep, he had glasses on and I asked her about the glasses because I'm thinking Josiah will probably have to have them. It ended up her baby 2 years old has down syndrome she adopted him in the US, but she knew all about Reece's Rainbow and said she thinks she has read Josiah's blog. She said she would get me all the contact info for the play and support groups in our area. It was so neat to talk to her and get to see her sweet little boy who may one day be Josiah's playmate. At the end of the show a lady came and bought a doll from me and she said it was so strange because she had just finished reading a book about a family adopting a boy from the same country Josiah is from. she was a sweet lady that had the best wishes for us. The lady across from us adopted her three children years ago and the lady down from us was adopted herself, there were story after story people would tell me about their adoption, or so in so they know having down syndrome, or about Josiah's country. So even though we didn't make much money it was a really neat day. Even if we just did it to meet the people we met it was so worth it. It really felt good to talk about Josiah out loud and not just thru my lap top.

Doll show Saturday, selling my doll collection

I collect dolls and made them at one time long ago. well I have a bunch and just feel that bringing my baby home is worth more to me then having a bunch of dolls. so this Saturday there is a doll show, I got a table and my girls and I are  going to sell my dolls to make money for Josiahs adoption . please pray that we do well and sell a lot and get good money for them. We will also be handing out flyers and have a donation jar out, please pray that the Lord touches peoples hearts to give. thank you

A three week setback

  A three week setback we were just told that the person that gives the dates to come meet the committee and Josiah is on vacation. The lady filling in for her does not feel comfortable in giving us a date due to the fact that we already have six kids. The fact that we have six kids has not come up before as far as a bad thing so I'm not sure why this lady felt this way. but what this means for us is that we have to wait to get our date until the other lady gets back from vacation on Sept 21st. so instead of us getting our date tomorrow like he had thought it will not be for three weeks. I am taking this all pretty well, maybe this is a blessing we can't see right now, giving us more time to raise the money we need. But we really did want him home with us by the end of the year.It is all Gods time so we will just sit back for the ride. please if you can donate to help bring him home we do still need it we still have not gotten word about the loans.

Court Dossier

Our court Dossier was sent to be apistilled. We got it back Tuesday and we mailed it to our agency. They will look it over and if all is good they will send it to our facilitator in Josiah's country. She will translate it and if its all good she will submit it to the judge, after we get home from our first trip. The judge will then send us a court date. Please pray that everything is good and no changes need to be made with our Dossier. And that nothing else needs to be added. I will tell you it sure does feel good to have it all done!!!



Please also pray that we get granted one of the adoption loans we applied for. As of now looks like we will be short $3000 for our first trip or maybe we can say our flights. If anyone out there wants to help us out by paying for our flights please let me know. Or if anyone is willing to put it on their credit card for us to pay back that would also be great. Thank you for all your prayers.

Application Dossier was submitted today!

Our Application Dossier was submitted today! They will send us a date to go meet our boy after they look it over . I was told maybe 2 weeks.so I hope that by Sept 6th we will have our date.
