I guess I’ll give a few adoption details since my site looks funky if the entries are shorter than the right nav bar.
Right… so… where to start…
Joel and I began the process to adopt from Ethiopia back in May. We’ve completed our part of the home study now (Virginia’s is rather intensive and this was a major hurdle), and we’re waiting on funds to come in to send our dossier to Christian World Adoption, our adoption agency. We’re aiming to adopt two children, both younger than Branwen (so under the age of three). Insane? Probably. But we believe God has called us to this, so He’ll richly bless us… through all of the sleepless nights and sicknesses passed from one child to another!
We sent out 260 support letters to a whole bunch of friends and family and have received a wonderful response. Many people have told us they’re praying for us, others have been able to send money to help (it’s tax deductible when written out to CWA), and one friend has asked if she can host a fundraising breakfast for us. Friends are an amazing gift from the Lord.
Ok… I really need to go now, so hopefully this is long enough to make my site look reasonable rather than lopsided.
