The Money Post

So, I wanted to clarify about our donation button on the blog here....  Nate and I have not been huge fans of adoption fundraising.  There is nothing wrong with it necessarily, but that was just not part of how we funded our first adoption.  Sure, we received some generous monetary gifts and we were very grateful for them, but we didn't actively seek them out.  We felt it was our decision to adopt and therefore, our responsibility to pay for it.  Also, we weren't creative enough to come up with any of the wonderful, fun ideas people have for adoption fundraising!!

This time, we have decided to put it out there.  To humble ourselves and ask for help.  Mainly, because we weren't planning on this.  Seriously, this sweet, adorable boy fell into our laps overnight.  I am totally in awe of how this has all happened!  

I know there are people who have asked how they can help.  Prayers and encouragement are immeasurably valuable to us!  Please, keep them coming!  And for those of you who want to help financially, you would be an answer to prayer.  But please, only give financially if it is something you really want to do.  We don't ever want anyone to feel pressure to give or feel that they have to give because they know us.  We all have different roles to play in life.  We all have different ways that we give.  

Thanks so much for everything!!!
