Well, Bless My Socks Off!

We have had our socks blessed off! We were blown away this weekend, as God continues to show His love through the generosity of others! To all of our friends and family who have prayed, donated money, donated clothes, etc.--THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS.

Our big push now is to raise money to go towards Ethiopian fees included in our adoption expenses. I was waivering a bit in my faith, and worry was setting in on Saturday, but God, of course, had sweet gifts and plans to ease my mind and put my attitude back in perspective. I don't know where all of the funds will come from. My flesh would like to plan it all out and find a solution for every detail. God is reminding me of something very important: HE IS SOVEREIGN AND IN CONTROL OF ALL!

Today, I have felt an especially strong sense of missing Kami. It is hard to make that make sense... She hasn't ever physically been with me, except for our brief meeting in January. But, I want her here so badly. I can almost feel her on my hip. It is like my hip is aching to hold her. Crazy sounding, I know, but true!

I am also wondering what our second meeting will be like? I CANNOT wait to hold her again! I cannot wait to be back in Ethiopia, taking in all the sights, sounds, and smells. I am, however, dreading the long flights and the jet lag. It will all be worth it though!

Our court date is now only 20 days away! That is less than three weeks. This has all moved so swiftly. Please be praying for all paperwork to make it to our file before the courtdate.

Our first official fundraiser is now only a week and a half away. We still have plenty of room for more! Won't you consider coming and bringing a friend for tea? April 24th from 11-1 or from 2:30-4:30, you can attend a tea with your family or friends and support bringing Kami home too! If you are interested or know of someone who might be, message me. Reservations are a must. I am more than happy to send you a flyer with the details!
