I'm a married mother of "3 1/2" ;) and the loves of my life are my faith and my family. I've grown in my faith over the last two years since my daughter's adoption, she is the reason why I started this blog in the first place, and I'm so looking forward to watching God move in my heart, and the hearts of others who follow along on our journey towards bringing home one of "the least of these". Special needs adoption is my mission field, whether I'm adopting a child myself, or helping other families get funded, or shouting for waiting children who need families to find them, and I hope you'll come along for the ride and watch what God can accomplish when we say yes to His command to care for the orphan, and go out into the world to be His hands and feet.

Fundraising!!!

Yay! Everyone's FAVORITE type of blog post!! LOL...

We have a LOT going on right now...the "high" of being on the verge of trip #1 is wearing off...and it's time to focus on the future...trips 2 and 3!

We are so blessed to have a pretty serious grant fund for our little lady, so a big "chunk" of trip 2 is already taken care of...and...if we're SUPER lucky...possibly trip 2 is even COVERED!! Wouldn't that be pretty shibby??

But, alas, there is that 3rd trip where we BRING OUR GIRL HOME!!!!! Yay!!! Woot!!! LOL....but...we have no money for that trip...so we're hoppin' aboard the fundraising train in a BIG way over the next couple of months and with your help, and God's grace, and a LOT of hardwork...we'll get this baby girl funded and HOME!

Here is what we have going on RIGHT NOW:

*Coin Drive*

From now until April 25th (and we might do it again later but for now this is our "collection date") we will be having a coin drive for our princess, we are handing out (or mailing if you live faraway!) these cute lil sippy cups:


Just fill 'er up with your spare change, and give it back on the collection date! If you live faraway, you might want to convert it into dollars or a check or something to avoid spending your life savings on shipping. :) This is something cute to get a Sunday School class in on, or for kids, etc...we've run into a lot of people wanting to do SOMETHING to help, but didn't know what, and they didn't want to feel that their help was insignificant, well...nothing you do out of the goodness of your heart will ever be insignificant to us, or to God. So, if you're interested, I'm happy to mail you one!

*Partylite Fundraiser*

I have ALWAYS loved Party Lite, ask anyone, I have a weakness for candles, they are my FAVORITE thing ever!!! So, when my friend Drea approached me with this idea, I was so thrilled!!! We get HALF of all the sales, and Drea so kind to offer her commission to our adoption also. This will only go from April 1st-April 15th so if you would like to be part of this, please act now!!! You can email me at priscilla.morse@gmail.com for all the information, or you can go "like" THIS FACEBOOK PAGE for tons of info!!!


Last of all, we're going to be back at the flea market this weekend selling handmade crafts to help fund the adoption account. :) My goal is to make $300, please pray that we hit that or blow it out of the water big time!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!!!
