Where it all began....

    We all know that life has its individual journeys and points where we may be called to take a leap of faith, or settle for the norm. Some of us step out, some of us don't. Until this year I always considered myself as someone who stayed with the routines, and never knew exactly what I was here on this earth for. But we serve a much bigger God....and He began placing on my heart the thoughts to adopt our second child. I began having conversations with my husband, Billy, and we continued to think and pray about it and really felt like this was the direction we were being called to go in. While we have one biological daughter, Maylena, we feel very grateful for this direction God has prompted us to take with our next family member. 

    Although we are really, really excited about getting the process started, we know that it will be something that takes time and we will need much support along the way!! We have been researching the ins and outs of adoption. The main thing we have decided is that we want to adopt domestically. We have attended a fundraising seminar that was very helpful with great ideas on how to raise the funds needed for the adoption and we have been to informational meetings. At the moment we are looking into an agencies who can help take us from start to finish. We hope to have a decision on this soon and begin our adoption!! Please continue to check in with us, I will keep this updated very often to help everyone stay in the loop.
