LABOR of LOVE Adoption Auction TEASER #1

I am very excited about our auction that will officially start A WEEK from today. So in efforts to get the word out I am sharing a few "teasers" to wet your appetite. PLEASE share with anyone and everyone. Share on your facebook page, share on your blog, email your friends & family, put it in your family newsletter, whatever the means: SHARE IT!!! By doing this you are joining a Labor of Love---as originated in 1 Thessalonians 1:3 [2 We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly[a] mentioning you in our prayers, 3remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.]

Also, bear with me. I hope to get out more teasers, but I also started my new job today and transitioning from stay home mama to full time teacher (& still the mama) may be a bit overwhelming. (Of course I didn't plan for these to be simultaneous events). :) All the more reason for you to partner with us to make this a huge success. At this point I have 60+ items (Can I get a Praise the Lord??!!). I can't even begin to express my thanks to all of the donors and friends. Your generosity is amazing.

So without futher ado:

Infant Crocheted Hat

Personalized Canvas Art

Reversible Dress

NOW GO SHARE THE LOVE!!!

CHRISTMAS in July!!!

Not only were we recently put on our waiting list in July---we just recieved a big gift today. We have been *trying* to wait patiently to hear whether or not we recieved an adoption assistance grant and Praise the Lord we did! The grant covers half of our next big fee---which is the referral fee. The referral fee needs to be in place so that when we are matched with our daughter....we are able to immediately pay that fee (I think technically we have a week or so---to beg, steal, and borrow). To be completely honest, we need $8,235 (for the next step alone) and we have $4,890---so we are more than half way there. (Some of this is from my awesome brother & friends who have graciously given to close the distance between Chloe and her soon to be new home.) [Thanks Brother Greg for running the distance]. Anyways, PLEASE if you haven't already, go "like" Show Hope on facebook so that they can continue to help others on their adoption journeys. For every "like" donors are donating funds to further their work.

Our next thing to bridge the gap will be our Labor of Love Adoption Auction, where YOU get to fight (out bid) for fun stuff and yet all proceeds goes towards the adoption. This will be in late Aug. thru Labor Day (hence Labor of Love)---If you don't know me---I am a sucker for alliteration. And besides a possible crop (which would just be fun anyways)--I think we are nearing the end of our fundraising efforts---Still check out Sweet Madelynne or our Current Fundraisers Tab. God has been so good! Thank you for following our sentiments. We are so grateful for all the support of friends and family.
