We are so busy with fundraising, scrimping and saving, and pinching pennies. I really thought we had more than what our thermometer shows. We will keep working on it.
We are working on some other fundraising activities as well as trying to appeal to the blog readers out there (see Please Donate Your Latte to Help Our Adoption). I know there are some generous Starbucks drinkers out there. I heard on the news that someone at a Starbucks drive-through paid for the person in the car behind them. That simple act seemed to continue for more than 150 customers.

Thanks for stopping by,

Hi Don and Elisabeth,
I got word from a fellow blog reader that you were having financial difficulty with completing your adoption. This is so often the case for many adoptive parents. Do you have a big support group through church? Have you thought of doing a silent auction? Do you have another blog where peole can read and be touched by your story. If you did, I can post about your adoption on my blog-- but a story would need to accompany it. How soon are you bringing your daughter home?
I look forward to being in touch. Blessings.
