OUR PLANS MULTIPLIED

In the beginning, JD adamantly only wanted two children. I thought that four would be perfect. Once we caught God's vision of putting orphans into families, our plan was multiplied by God. We are currently blessed with 12 children; five biological, six adopted and one more waiting in Ethiopia. Our first adoption was from the U.S., the next three were from Liberia, West Africa, and our last two were from Ethiopia. We are supporting our 12th child in Ethiopia after her adoption could not pass court.

Need to Christmas Shop?

I only have a few minutes, as we have a boy's soccer game, girl's drama practice, boy's birthday party and a trip to Urgent Care for Moriah's ear infection; yes, one of those days we drive two cars to soccer and then divide and conquer....Anyway, if you are considering Christmas shopping this weekend, first look at Linny's blog -

She has links for people that are making and selling items to fund raise to bring their children home. Nothing like helping an orphan make it home at the same time you provide meaningful gifts for your loved ones!

I'll be shopping after my afternoon marathon around town!
