One Step Closer


I am so excited that we turned in our Home Study Notebook this past Friday!  We are now waiting to hear from the agency to schedule a date for our home study.  I am really hoping it is the first week of June so that I can spend Memorial Day Weekend cleaning!  I really need to get this house in order!

I can't wait to get this part of the process done.  Once our home study is finished, we will be able to apply for grants.  These grants will help us in the financial aspect of this journey.  Our next payment is for $5500 and we must raise $1000 to pay for our psychological evaluations.  If you would like to donate to our fund you can do so by clicking on the donate button on the right had side of this blog.

I have also had people ask how they can help us raise money but they do not live close by.  There are many ways you can help us.  First, you can pray.  Ask God what He might want you to do.  Here are a list of ideas that we have so far:

1.  Bake Sale
2.  Car Wash
3.  Garage Sale
4.  Dinner
5.  Purchase or take orders for our Adoption T-shirts
6.  Purchase items from our Etsy Store.  www.etsy.com/shop/117project
7.  Blog about our adoption journey and direct others to our site.
8.  Lemonade Stand
9.  Craft Sale
10.  Raffle

Hope this helps some of you.  Thank you for partnering with us on this journey!
