There has been an outpouring of generosity that has touched our hearts, and it is one in which Hannah and S----- have directly felt. It has been so cool to see God's people storing up treasures in heaven by donating their things and money to these two precious children.
We are new at raising babies and toddlers, and financially unprepared. Both children were placed in our care rather suddenly, and the timing is not ideal for us financially. I think a lot of people wait and wait and put off having children until they can "afford" them. Although we didn't wait regarding the normal way of having children--we tried for 15 years and as far as we knew, there was no medical reason we couldn't conceive. Where we did wait was regarding getting involved with DFCS, and trying to adopt a child through them. We kept hoping we would make enough money to adopt from overseas, but that never happened, and we were not getting any younger. Now we are kind of kicking ourselves for not getting involved with DFCS sooner. It is such a blessing to be a parent. It is the hardest job you'll ever love, as the slogan goes.
Anyway, seeing your generosity (not just from those who gave, but from those who pray and those who encourage us as well) helps me know that God will provide for his children.
Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!!
