I can finally share our news. We are adopting! Our little girl is due September 25. Her name will be Hope Marie. We are very excited. It is amazing how God has put this all together. From the time I wrote down my prayer request regarding adoption till the time we spoke with the birthmother it has only been three weeks. We are still a little shocked that this is all happening. God is faithful and always gives me hope. I will explain more later on how we chose the name Hope.
We will be telling Halli this weekend that she is going to be a big sister. It's going to be hard for awhile. Halli doesn't care for babies and has made it clear that she only wants a 4yr old sister. She is also a very jealous little girl. I can't even hold a baby with out her coming over and wanting to be in my lap also. So, much prayer is needed with little Halli.
One more thing about adoption. It is very expensive. Since we were not expecting this we do not have any money saved for it. We are working on a few things to see if we can get some kind of loan. We are trusting God that he has brought us this far and will continue to do miracles at the Vance's.
Anyone want to have a jewelry show? :)
Can't wait till our little Hope is born and can post pictures of her and pictures of Alaska. Did I mention that is where Hope will be born?
