We are excited to "announce" that we are going to be adopting from Ethiopia. We applied to Christian World Adoption on December 24, 2008. Then, we sent our first packet of information/funds on January 6, 2009. We are now accepted as official clients and are starting the paper process.
We have seen several of our friends adopt, and as we have walked with them, God has put the desire in our hearts to be involved in a more hands-on way! Really, this journey started several years ago, but we are so excited to be at this point today.
After we moved in to our home this fall, we prayed intentionally that God would confirm this desire and that he would give us direction. He has done both, and again, we are so excited and thankful to serve such a personal God!

I'm so excited to pray with you through all of this! I wish I could run to the post office or watch the kids while you go to a meeting or anything else to help, but know I will be praying daily! I promise.
