A little over 2 months ago, Chip and I made the decision to adopt a little girl from China. Since then, we've done lots of research, picked an adoption agency (Great Wall China Adoption) and just this past Monday, we sent in our application. Two days later, I got a call from Great Wall in which they informed me our application has been approved! We are now working on getting the funds for the first contract fee, and it looks hopefull that we'll have it in 2 weeks to a month!
We are just so excited about this long journey we will make! If you haven't already read the story behind why we decided to adopt, you can read it on our fundraising website, http://www.bringhannahhome.org/our_story.htm. Needless to say, this is one of the most challenging situations we've ever been in, but feel the struggle of raising money and the long wait will be more than worth it when we finally see our daughter for the first time.
We ask for your prayers as we start this journey: That God will guide us in making the right decisions and that He will give us patience and strength during the next few trying years.
