We had begun fundraising for our homestudy fees when I got the call that there was a mistake with the original fee agreement with our foreign agency, and we'd need to wire 1,190 euros ASAP, because the money was due with our referral acceptance in country.
So, our homestudy fees took the back burner, and we turned our focus to coming up with $1,826, to cover the foreign agency fees and two wiring fees (one for us to wire the money to our placing agency and one for our placing agency to wire the money to our foreign agency). And today, the wire has been made! At the time we sent the wired funds, we had, to the dollar, exactly what we needed! Isn't God awesome! He provided exactly what we needed, exactly when we needed it!
We are 1,826 steps closer to our daughter, and 1/3 of the way funded!!!
PRAISE GOD!!!
We are praying that we will soon get updated information on her development and, just as I hoped for an updated ultrasound picture during my pregnancies, I am hoping for a new picture of her! I cannot wait to see how much more beautiful she has grown since the time her photo was taken!
I can't end this post without thanking a few people specifically for making this payment possible. To D&J, thank you for your very generous gift for our Chick-fil-A giveaway; to S&M, B&M, and M&D thank you for giving so unselfishly your kids' clothes and toys for us to sell, and to T, I cannot thank you enough for the time you spent helping me to get everything organized and priced, and for advocating so much for our family.
