We
completed the paperwork to include two children!
We will, Lord willing, be
bringing home two kiddos at the same time instead of just one! This
decision was made with much prayer, council, and thought, but we are
excited about the possibilities ahead. Nothing is for certain, and He
can redirect us if He chooses.
With a sibling group, our
next (and last!) set of fees do increase substantially. Specifically,
to a total of $11,000, not including airfare and other travel
expenses. We are continuing to trust God to supply the need in His
timing. He has been faithful in the past and will remain faithful.
Our wait time should not
increase substantially because of this change. The children that we
will be bringing home will both be under 5 at the time of referral.
They may or may not be birth siblings, but they will certainly be
siblings when they join our family. There will be at least one boy,
and at least one of them will be over two. It is a broad request, but
we look forward to seeing what God has in mind for us!
Thanks for sharing in our
joy!
