Update/Super doubles @ Harris Teeter

Hey! Not much of an update, but we have finished our "dear birthmother" letter. We also collected & printed all of the pictures we wanted to send to Korea & signed the rest of our paperwork with our placing agency (just 2 papers). So, today I sent our "dear birthmother" letter, pictures, 2 more forms, & our medical forms to our agency. Now we should be getting our home study any day. The waiting begins! We have nothing to do as far as paper work goes, right now anyways. We just wait for our fingerprinting appointment. We are waiting on USCIS.

On another great note though, we got our first check from our coffee fundraiser! We got $75! Yay! We got about $200 around Christmas, so our funds are slowly, but surely growing! The wonderful ladies at our church are getting started on a church cook book with the proceeds going towards our adoption too! That is awesome! I love our church family! They are so wonderful & God is GOOD!

Now, couponing! :) Super doubles @ Harris Teeter, they double any coupon up to $1.98 this week! I'm just gonna list what I got, & the price. I've done better, but I got things that I didn't have coupons for too!

Hey, This was in my devotion for this morning. When I read it I knew that I had to share it with you:

Search the faces of the Cap Haitian orphanage for Carinette.... The girl with the long nose and bushy hair and a handful of photos....The photos bear the images of her future family. She's been adopted.
Her adoptive parents are friends of mine. They brought her pictures, a teddy bear, granola bars, and cookies. Carinette shared the goodies and asked the director to guard her bear, but she keeps the pictures. They remind her of her home-to-be. Within a month, two at the most, she'll be there. She knows the day is coming....Any day now her father will appear. Till then she lives with a heart headed home.
Shouldn't we all? Our Father paid a visit too. Have we not been claimed? Adoped?... God searched you out. Beore you kenw you needed adopting, he'd already filed the papes and selected the wallpaper for your room.

I hope that this blesses you as much as it did me!

Love you both,
Jennifer
