Dossier

Our Dossier was finally sent to China on Friday!
China will review the Dossier and then give us a log in date. The log in date is when we are logged into the system to be matched with our baby. God, please allow us to be matched with your perfect match for our family. I hope it comes soon!!! Each month end is when the list of new files are received from China. We could possibly be matched by the end of March!!!!

We have sent out our adoption letters & we will be doing our 5K & Fun Run in 2 weeks. We are praying God will bless our adoption with the funding as we pursue!

Our Dossier paperwork is now completed & authenticated!!!!
We also received a referral today!
Praying for God to guide us!!!

The vision of getting to China to get our baby is starting to get closer & closer!

Planning for the 5K Run

It's so awesome to see how God puts people into your life that bless you when you should be blessing them. I received a $75 check today to put toward our adoption & several others who want to help sponsor the 5K run. Everything seems to be working out.

The only hic cup is I didn't realize I would have to get the City of Cullman to approve the race. They will meet next week but I think all will work out. For now the plan is still to proceed with the 5K run March 10 @ the Festhalle (Cullman Farmer's Market). We will have several door prizes & awards! It will be a fun day & hopefully a good fund raiser too! Spread the word, I need runners & voluteer's to help Hope For One Less Orphan 5K & Fun Run!!!!
