I ran across this poem while browsing adoption blogs. Love it! Brief update: We are simply waiting on the finances to move forward with our homestudy! We are completely dependent on God to supply the money and are excitedly waiting on His timing. We cannot wait to take the next step and be that much closer to bringing our baby home! Would you consider helping us? Sponsor a puzzle piece and be a part of this amazing adventure!
LEGACY OF AN ADOPTED CHILD
Once there were two women who never knew each other
One you do not remember, the other you call Mother
Two different lives shaped to make you one
One became your guiding star, the other became your sun
The first one gave you life, and the second taught you to live it
The first gave you a need for love, the second was there to give it
One gave you a nationality, the other gave you a name
One gave you a talent, the other gave you aim
One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears
One saw your first sweet smile, the other dried you tears
One made an adoption plan, that was all that she could do
The other prayed for a child, and God led her straight to you.
Now, which of these two women, Are you the product of?
Both, my darling, Both, Just two different types of love.

Sponsor an Animal!
Check it out on our 'Puzzle Fundraiser' page. We've added the option to sponsor an animal! When you make a donation of the amount of pieces for a specific animal, your name will be written on the back of those specific pieces! For example, 20 pieces or $200 sponsors the flamingos!
If you've already donated just let us know what animal you'd like to sponsor! We prefer not to split the animals up except for possibly in the case of the tigers, lions and the ark. If you are interested in those pieces, let us know!
We are so excited and think this is a fun way to add to our fundraiser and make it more enjoyable for everyone!
As always, HUGE THANKS to everyone who finds it in their hearts to support us on this journey!
PS We have made Paypal available for donations but if possible we would appreciate receiving donations in other ways as Paypal deducts 3% of the donation to cover their own fees.
