I have to tell you what is going on and how faithful our God is! So far our adoption has cost $1925 and with all of the fundraisers and donations we have raised $1900. Wow! I am in awe of what He is doing! Thank you so much to all of the people who have bought T shirts, prayed for us, donated money or have just encouraged us.
So far we have been accepted into the Ethiopia program, started our online training and mailed in our first payments and agreements. This week we will hear from our appointed family coordinator on next steps. We will start our home study soon and will start "the paper chase".
This is a glimpse into our journey to our sweet Ethiopian son. Through this journey we found a new heart. God lead us closer to himself and we are forever grateful for this opportunity.

Oh, how the Lord provides! Enough said.
Welcome to AWAA Ethiopia program! I saw your post on the Yahoo Group. We actually have a much more active yahoo group that is AWAA Ethiopia families and it is awesome. I highly recommend it! The guy who moderates it for us in Ethiopia this week picking up his two sons, but I am assure he will approve you as soon as he gets back if you'd like to join us!
Welcome to AWAA! You are going to love the Ethiopia group! Everyone is so supportive of each other. Let us know if you need any help during the paperchase - You are going to love Terra and Duni as well. They are so good to all of us families!
By the way I love the kids T's!!! Going to see about getting one now! Blessings,

Glad to see your comment on my blog. I of course jumped right to yours. We are all here for you as you start on this journey. Through reading your last couple of posts - you will want to check out my blog posts that reference the $$. I'm amazed daily at how God has provided above and beyond w/ the $$. We are fully funded, and don't even have our referral yet! (And no grants even!) He is amazing. Can't wait to see what He reveals to you as you begin your journey!
In Him,
Jody Britton (waiting for referral)
Welcome to this amazing journey! I am rejoicing with you, God has provided for us financially in wonderful ways so far! He is so faithful! Can't wait to follow along with your family!
Just had to comment again when I saw that we have also been married for 6 years, have a 3 year old, and a 22 month old (we had to wait until she was 18 months to begin) too!
I love your blog template!
