Thank you very much to everyone who has contributed donations to the orphanage clothing fundraiser!! As of yesterday, $475.00 has been donated. Praise God for what he has put on peoples hearts!!! :) I recently asked our contact at Love Without Boundaries what it would cost to purchase a single outfit for the babies at Poyang. He shared that each outfit (top and bottom) costs just under $4.00!!! Based on the donations already contributed we have enough funds for LWB to purchase approx. 118 outfits for these children! That's just over one outfit per baby. I'd love to see that come up to two outfits per baby, considering that the washing and changing of clothes with little ones is frequent. That would mean we'd need an additional $245. Prayerfully consider donating $5.00 (1 outfit) toward this effort to provide summer clothing for the babies at Poyang orphanage. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly at robinleese27@ymail.com or reference my original post, http://leeseadoptionadventure.blogspot.com/2010/04/orphanage-clothing-fundraiser-in-honor.html
Updates on Hadley
As of right now, we have still not received any updated information on Hadley since we received her referral just over 3 months ago. We have requested information but our agency has not gotten a response back yet from her orphanage. Of course we are hoping to get a glimpse of how she is doing and her sizes so we know what clothing and diapers to bring when we travel. Our hope and prayer is to travel in July because my mom and dad will be watching Wyatt for the 2 weeks we are in China. My mom is still teaching and goes back to work, the first week in August, so July travel would be a TREMENDOUS blessing! There is the possibility that if we don't travel in July, just one of us will be going to China, so that someone can stay home with Wyatt. God is good and he will work it all out according to his will.
Last but not least, we celebrated yesterday because a family at our agency received their LOA in just 41 days yesterday!! We are now at day 20 and praying for a speedy LOA which would allow us to travel faster. Anything is possible and we are hopeful! :)
Have a great day!! Sending out big hugs!!
Robin
