Our paperwork is nearly finished and a suitcase sits in the living room. We are counting days and weeks instead of months. The journey we began by faith is ending on an even bigger dose of faith.
We met Oliver YaQing on July 3rd via Skype. He is the most precious boy and we are over the moon about him. It was bittersweet for this mama to see her son, speak with him and not be able to wrap her arms around him. Soon. Soon he and Gracie will be ours forever, such an amazing word. Forever. Their lives changed. Forever. Our lives changed. Forever. Others changed because of them. Forever.
We leave for China in about four weeks. We are standing on faith because we are needing funds for travel and Gracie's orphanage fee. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this faith journey. You have increased our faith and built us up in a way we could have never imagined.
We have an online sale and auction going on write now on Facebook. Come and check out the items, some great opportunities for Christmas gifts. Like our page and see what new items we are adding.

We have 10 days left on our T-shirt fundraiser. We need 38 more shirts to order. These would also make great gifts and are affordable enough for the whole family. We have children's sizes as well as long sleeves and hoodies.
