We have BIG news!

We are adopting a baby girl!

SURPRISE, we got a call yesterday (June 15) that Siah's birth mom is giving birth (early!) to a baby girl AND she's decided to place her into our family. Praise God! We are beyond excited and scrambling to complete paperwork, acquire funds, make travel plans and do everything we can to prepare to welcome a beautiful new life into our home.

As this is very last minute and right on the heels of our last adoption, we've started a crowdfunding campaign. Because of this timing, we're unable to apply for grants and our adoption related costs will likely total over $45,000.

If you are interested in helping us, thank you! We need:

• Prayers that the process will go well and be God-glorifying. For patience, endurance, wisdom and smooth transition for all of us. For birth mother's mental, physical and spiritual health and that the adoption would be a blessing. There is much we don't know about the birth father, but prayers for justice, righteousness and goodness in his regard.
• We love hand-me-downs!!! All of our supplies start at 3-year-old.
• Airline miles that you're not going to use???
• Financial help (AdoptTogether is a 501(c)(3), tax deductible, grant site that ensures all funds go to adoption expenses.
• Any connections you have in GA.
• Parenting wisdom and words of encouragement

Thank you for being an encouragement to us!!
