Don’t you think adoption is exciting?! We certainly do! We have been amazingly blessed by God through our adoptions of Charlie and R.J. And now, we believe God is about to bless us again through our adoption of Tony and Mickey.
But—as anyone who has adopted already knows—the adoption journey isn’t an easy one! It has its ups and downs, lots of waiting, lots of paperwork, and more waiting, lots of official people in the U.S. going through all the paperwork, and more waiting, lots of official people in Haiti going through all the paperwork, and more waiting, as well as a fair share of expense for all that paperwork and those official people doing their jobs. Then, after more waiting, and a couple trips to Haiti, the kids finally get to come home!
We estimate that it will take a year or two, lots and lots of patience, approximately $45000, and abundant reliance on God to bring Tony and Mickey home to join our family. And this is where you come in! If you feel led to support us in this journey, here are some ways you can help:
- Pray with us and for us during the adoption process.
- Follow our steps on this blog as we move ahead, and offer your encouragement by leaving a comment when you can.
- Contribute to one (or more) of our fundraising projects:
- T-SHIRTS www.adoptionbug.com/4morefeet
We are excited to partner with Adoption Bug to offer 5 different t-shirts that promote adoption. A portion of the cost of each shirt purchased goes directly to us for adoption expenses.
- COFFEE https://justlovecoffee.com/about/beneficiary/4morefeet/
Just Love Coffee is a non-profit organization that roasts and sells specialty coffee. A portion of each item you purchase goes directly to us for adoption expenses.
-
AMAZON.COM
We have also signed up with Amazon’s Associates Program so that, by using the Amazon Search box on the right side of our blog, you can purchase anything you wish at the regular price from Amazon and they will donate a small portion of their profit to us for adoption expenses.
-
CHIP-IN
If you don’t need a t-shirt or any coffee or anything from Amazon, but you’d still like to help out financially, then you may contribute any amount you wish using the Chip-In box on the right side of our blog. Our first BIG upcoming expense is $4,350 in adoption agency fees, due at the completion of our home study (probably in September).

Other Ideas Coming Soon
We have a few more ideas in the works, so stay tuned!
And a heartfelt Thank You in advance to all who decide to support us in any way on this exciting adoption journey!
