Hello everyone!

As our first update, we would like to let all of you know that we were accepted fully into All God's Children International for adoption! We worked diligently to get all paperwork and applications in through January, and now we can go to the next steps! Many of you know that our first financial goal was $4800.00 which is applied to our contract fees. Between YOUR generosity and our own mad dash to save, TOGETHER we have met that goal! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Our next steps include beginning the home study process, which can take 4-6 months to complete Please pray we can connect with a skilled and wonderful social worker who will help us through this first big step! Our next financial milestone will be between $3000-5000.00 for that home study. If you would like to support us in bringing our little heart home, you can do that through this Pure Charity site. Stay tuned for more details about our process, the amazing grants we are pursuing, and super fun fundraising ideas we have.

We are SO THANKFUL for such a supportive community, and as the saying goes, "It takes a village to raise a child," we can also say, "It takes a village to bring a child home." YOU are our village, and we can't wait for the day that our little heart gets to meet you.
