That means we are only $3,000 away from our goal!! We have $21,000 of the $24,000 we will need to wire all the fees to China and pay everything else (adoption processing fees, guide fees, hotels) on Friday so that we can leave for China on Monday to go get our babies!!!
We are incredibly grateful for every single donation. A sweet lady who donated yesterday wrote me a message saying that while she may be too old to adopt a child, an adoptive mama had reminded her that she could still help children be adopted into families. How sweet is that? And it is SO true!! Not everyone is meant to adopt a child, but we can all be the solution for these children in one way or another. As we work together, we change the lives of Lily and Noah forever. Your donations help them get home to us and to the medical care they desperately need. A lot of families have told me that they'd love to adopt but can't afford it. My response is "most of us can't afford to by ourselves, but we can all work together to bring this kids home." So thank you, everyone who has donated already and for all those who consider donating today.
It's giving Tuesday. Let's do this!!! I've got a lot of bag tagging to do tonight!! Can't wait to post a pic of that suitcase covered in names!!!

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." 1 Peter 5:7
I know that God is faithful; that he loves these children more than you or I can imagine... So, I'm consciously choosing not to let stress take over, but to trust that on Giving Tuesday his plan is being fulfilled by all of you.
Thank you all so much!
Love,
Fannie & Matt
