A little FUNdraising.

We’re getting so much closer to meeting Baby Smith, you guys. We finished our home study a few weeks ago, and now we’re just waiting on final approval. Once we’re approved, they could potentially start showing us to birth mothers…. Holy. Cow…. There are tons of factors involved, and people have been known to wait for over a year before matching, but in the absolute most extreme case ever – we could have a child sometime next month. Holy…… Cow…..!!

Needless to say, we’re working our tails off to get things ready. We know that in all likelihood, we will wait much longer than a month, but better to be over-prepared than under we say. That means we are in full-on fundraiser mode. Which brings me to YOU! If you’d like to join us in bringing home Baby Smith, you can do one of the following:

We’ve got a few other things in the works, but this is how you can help for now. Again, we are beyond grateful for your encouragement and support. And, as always, we thank you for your prayers.


Much love, y’all!
