Well, can you believe it?! Its finally happening - we are sending our first initial adoption installment tomorrow! With it accompanies a rather large pile of paperwork that we had to read and sign off on.

With this first check, we actually have a shortfall of $260.00 but we are going on faith that it'll come in this week!

So what's next, you ask?! Here's what I know. Sometime in the next few weeks we will be assigned a Family Coordinator. Once that is in place, we will work with him or her to work our way through the paper trail. Not only is that a lot of papers and tasks assigned to us, but it also means a lot of money - about $6K more to be exact.

We are working on how to come up with that big number now! It'll involve our own contributions and hopefully a large garage sale in July. Our goal is to be through the paper trail by August!

In the meantime, we are celebrating this first big hurdle and look with anticipation for God to guide us through the next challenges to come.

Thanks for hanging in there and if you feel led to help us out financially, please check out our Crowd Funding Page here at Pure Charity!

Resting in His perfect will -
