Making a Difference!....and an Update on Max's Move West!!

*Mayah's Fund made the goal for Gail's surgery!! I look forward to following Gail's progress.

Many people here in our local adoption community know Our Story when we were in the process of adopting Lily. There's no doubt in our minds that God was at work in our lives....and many other's lives. We still keep in touch with all of the people that touched our lives~forever connected~~

*Christine and Oprhan Response are preparing for another trip to Lily's orphanage in Siping this summer! Next year I hope to join this group to Siping.

*Katherine over at Life of a Pilgrim has been fund raising for the orphans at Lily's orphanage for several years. Katherine is currently fundraising for 2 children from Siping orphanage to travel to south China to have a serial casting treatment done for club feet.

*Cassandra & Dale are getting closer to bringing their child home. Cassandra and Dale only live about 5 minutes away~~which still blows my mind!! You'll have to read Our Story to see why.

*Debbie at Pixel Fairy Princess Photography started the ball rolling with our story. You have to stop on over to see the work she does with a camera~~stunning!

*Max is a few steps closer to home!! We got our LOA from China a month earlier than expected~~4/15/09!! We're currently waiting for the final travel approval from China~~which we expect to get within the next 2 weeks. Once our consulate appointment is made we'll be able to make flight arrangements! It's looking like June travel!!

*May 8th will be 2 years since we met Lily in China!! Happy Anniversary Lily!!

Adoption and the people brought into our lives through adoption have changed our life forever.
