Where we are financially.

I know that the financial aspect of adoption can get confusing.  I have people ask me all the time how much adoption costs and why it is so expensive.  The answer is sin...the love of money.

Sad, but true.

 

Then I start to explain the details of the payment plan and people get really lost!  What cracks me up is when Gavin tries to explain it...I don't think he has gotten it right once:)

 

I figured since we have this really exiting fundraiser coming up I would give you a little update.

 

Well basically this is where we are at...

In our lifesong account $12,881

Amount needed to accept referral $9,595

Amount needed to travel $11,600

Amount needed for post placement $2,000

Agency fees left to pay $2,700

This was after the second yard sale....that a lot of cash!

 

  This means to complete the adoption we will need a little more money.

$13,014

to be exact.
Almost there!

 

You know what really get me?  I do not even feel the least bit concerned about the amount of money we still need to raise to bring our kids home.  God has supplied everything so far and I will never doubt him again.  Praise the God who provides!

Irelyn helped count the coins:)

Don't forget...our big fundraiser surprise will be announced on Monday!  We are going to set a goal of $5,000 to pay for the first trip:)
