Items that would be a great addition to what we now have are any baby items, children’s toys and clothing as well as furniture in good repair. Please contact us here<\/a> if you are interested in donating.<\/p>\nOur dear friend and her two young daughters have also generously volunteered to host a lemonade stand for us at our yard sale on Friday the 18th! We will also be selling homemade bake goods. Mark your calendars and come out to join us Friday or Saturday for some fun. Stop by to shop and enjoy some yummy refreshments.<\/p>\n

Another exciting event on the horizon is a Noonday jewelry sale<\/a> that a college friend of Robert’s is hosting in our honor and 15% of the proceeds will be contributed to our adoption fund!<\/p>\nPraises:<\/h3>\n
\n~We are learning a lot through this process about who we are as parents and how to love one another better as a family. (The book the Connected Child has been a great resource and a blessing.)<\/p>\nPrayers:<\/h3>\n
\n~For all the details of our yard sale to come together and for the energy and good health to get us through.
\n~That our eyes will remain open to the amazing ways God is at work.
\nTo God be the glory, He is doing great things!<\/p>\n
