Can you say 171?

Yahoo! We just received our 171 in the mail today! This is our pre approval to bring an orphan child in to the US and it is a big deal! That means the ball is rolling!!
Today we are sending Stephen some goodies in the mail. Hopefully he will love his M&Ms/ gummy lifesavers, bear animal blankie, Disney Cars blanket,small dumptruck and a cute shirt that says "My mommy loves me"..I just had to slip that in there. (Thanks Dana for buying him this...it was his first present from friends). The bear animal blankie was the first purchase we ever made for him over three years ago..I just prayed one day we would be able to give it to him. Oh yes, we are also sending a disposable camera to record his reaction when he opens the goodies!! Priceless moments.
Hang on, sweet little man, mommy,daddy, big sisters and big brother are counting down the days!

Remember Jung Woo?


Have you ever wondered what happened to Jung Woo? He is Stephen's best bud at AMSA and he was the babe I was very concerened about leaving behind when we brought Stephen home. Well, you may already know that a wonderful family in Iowa has chosen him for their sixth child! He will have three brothers and two sisters. His youngest sister also lived at AMSA and he may even remember her. His mom is a member of the AMSA yahoo group with me and his dad is a pastor.
As you may know, adoption can be expensive, and they are trying to raise the funds needed to bring Micah Jung Woo home. You can still support adoption in times like these even when you don't feel that God has called your family to adopt personally. I always say "if we all gave a little"....
Feel free to check out his story on Heart and Seoul
and help Fly Micah Home!!

Praise Band Movie Trailer

Funny guy


Those of you from the Charlotte area remember the Car Guy from Saturday mornings news and that crazy face on the front of the Buffalo Tire advertisements. Well, that is Jon's good friend and old boss. He is one hysterical personality, sometimes in the goofy sense, and he has landed himself a spot in a Christian Movie called Praise Band. It was really neat to see the trailer. I posted them backwards as you can see..I never claimed to be computer savvy.
Oh yes, he is the drummer and I think the old man in the beginning.
