Guys.
Guess what?
WE ARE
HAVING A BABY!
Isn't he so perfect? |
To say that
we are excited would be the understatement of the century. We knew this wait
could take up to a few years, but a sweet expectant Momma chose us. First, she
chose life for her baby and then she chose us to raise her precious little boy.
We are amazed by her. We have been writing back and forth with her, and she is
so sweet and selfless. We are flying down to Florida (for less than 8 hours –
eeek!) to meet her next week Wednesday.
The baby is
due November 14th – so about 6 weeks left in the pregnancy.
Things are
happening very fast around here, and we feel a little bit crazy! We know that
God will take care of us, and our growing family. We know that there will be
grace upon grace and all we have to do is take the next step. We have seen God
provide for us in so many situations, and we are clinging to that promise that
he will continue to do so.
We are
trying to get arrangements made for November, as we will be in Florida for up
to 2 weeks while everything gets legal.
We are still
working on fundraising for the adoption. If you would like to contribute
financially we would so appreciate it!
We are still
doing the puzzle fundraiser – see the previous blog about that, but I have
included a photo of our progress there! We would LOVE to have that puzzle done
and hanging in the nursery before we leave to bring the baby home. Each piece is $20 and you can
buy as many as you would like!
We covet
your prayers, and are so thankful for the support we have received during this
process. Please let us know if you have any questions - brittany.immink@gmail.com
Love,
Brittany & Mark
Are you going with me to Mexico?
