Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress...James 1:27

Fingerprints- ✅

Brad and I woke up early and drove to Birmingham to get our biometric fingerprints done. It was a success! We hear that the wait for the i800a approval right now is rather lengthy. So now we just sit and wait for our approval to arrive in the mail, and then we will be DTC shortly! It was a nice early-morning date with my love. We had breakfast, and then headed back to Huntsville. We were back by 11 AM.... Just in time for a nap! 😂

Falling...

I'm totally falling in love...with China. And of course ultimately our new baby girl. But it's amazing how much my heart yearns to be there, to learn more, and to be ready to meet our precious child! Sometimes you just have to find things to keep your heart afloat during the wait...like these cute lotus flower earrings!   Probably not something I would have been draw to before our adoption- but now- each little piece of China I can get is special!

Overwhelmed by generosity!

We are so honored to announce that our amazing "mamapreneur" Jennifer Gray Elwell from Tales of A Peanut and Minipeanuts has created some AMAZING items to sell for our adoption! She has created timeless prints, beautiful scripture prints, and my favorite- God Answers Prayer records to record special prayers on and possibly frame and gift to someone special . She also has so many amazing things in her store- so please go take a look and SHOP for a cause! She will write a blog feature on our family this Thursday...so check back on her site to read about it later this week.
For the month of March, 10% of all shop profits will go to our family- and 100% of profits of our adoption collection will benefit our fundraising! Click the link below to begin. Thanks so much friends and family for all your love and support so far! 
*If you are local- I have a few prints at home with me ready to hand deliver! So check with me before ordering- I may already have it and could save you shipping!
We are so thankful for Jennifers friendship and her support for us during our adoption. She is a blessing to our family and we are overwhelmed with her amazing talent and generosity.
