How neat! They weren't doing that when we completed ours :-) I understand wanting to frame it for sure!!!! I think I missed your donor post somehow and finally just read it now... AMAZING! God is so good!!!!
Oh, Allison, how encouraging to read about the many ways God is paving the way to bring Caroline Faith home. I know God is and will continue to use your adoption journey to encourage others to bring one home. I'm so thankful He's called our families to join Him on this amazing walk of faith and blessing.Thanks for all your sweet comments on my blog!
Hi!! Thanks for stopping by our blog, it is nice to meet you and it will be fun to follow your journey as well. I LOVE your certificate...I think I need to ask our case worker for one! So fun! Grace to you, Amy
Oh, do we ever now hat you mean when you say, Labor of Love! We are in the middle of doing our DOssier and HS now and we are so over-whelmed. Trying to fit all of it in with a family to care for it a challenge. So, yes I can imagine it must make you fell like FRAME that certificate. What a nice touch from AGCI!
I am a full-time mom to four precious children, and have been married for 15 years to my wonderful, campus pastor, husband-Jody.
I love my family, baking, working out, reading, Ole Miss sports, Mexican food, our church, walking, and having friends over.
Most of all, I love my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Our family's motto is "Love God, Love Others", and we are trying to live that out! We are so thankful that the Lord has brought our baby girl home from Ethiopia!
