MOVING ALONG FAST . . .

I hope we can keep up . . . today we found out our home study is going to be completed next week. We have medical appointments on Thursday to get all documents and blood tests started. We are driving to Gardiner to pick up final copy of study on our way to Portland for our meeting with Homeland Security and fingerprinting! Praise God that all this has worked out for Jon on his vacation, so he will not need to take unpaid time off. Yay! We need to keep saving all these pennies ya know. ;0)

The excitement of us traveling by June is awesome, but that makes the fundraising a bit more intense. I hope yard sale weather comes soon. I believe we will have to wait a bit longer though. Again, if you have anything to donate, please let us know. Any other ideas will be appreciated. We know God has a plan and has chosen certain people to be part of this, some who don't even know it yet, but we don't want to sit around with idle hands, we want to do all we can to earn money to bring her home. We are still praying this will be a family missions trip, and that we can all afford to go. If anyone feels they want to join us, give us a call. Let's see what God is going to do.

Now I get to go put a box together to send over to her. I need to pray about what to put in the letter. Pray for words of comfort and hope. Thanks for taking this journey with us. We love you all!

Hey Linda,
As far as donated items to sell consider Uncle Henry's online. Each time I post something, I get calls the same day usually. You can get stuff listed in the Massachusetts issue too. They post immediately for the online stuff and on Thursdays for the printed issues. We've had good luck there.

Thanks so much Ruthie, will do! I have home school books to sell and have listed those on ebay before. I need to get organized and post these things, just hard with my days with Naomi. I tutor somedays, and the stuff is all in the garage, where it is freezing!

Pray I can get to these things done, Lord move me to complete these tasks that need doing. Organize my mind and actions please.
