Dinner

Tonight at dinner Anna actually ate some Cheerios instead of feeding them to us.  Other highlights on the video, besides Matt's chopstick talent, is Matt trying to get her to say "ba ba" which is "daddy" in Mandarin and all she will say is "ma ma" :).

Tana! This was the first time Abby and I saw this video clip. We had to install a newer version of Adobe Flash Player and it turned out to be complicated. I love this! She's so cute and Matt is doing awesome with those chopsticks. I'll make sure Dave gets to see it. We're praying for Anna with the "honeymoon" ending. Our love!

Our goals in this blog are two-fold. We want to keep friends and family informed and updated but we also pray that you would be moved to do your part in making the invisible God visible to those who are orphaned or at risk of becoming orphaned. There are so many ways to do something. God’s heart is for the orphan (James 1:27) and if you ask Him for direction in this He will answer.

For those of you sensing to support us, here is how you can do so as of now.

  • PRAISE for her life and for the opportunity we have to be her family.
  • Prayers for guidance in preparing for her to join our family; protection and care for her and direction for the hands caring for her; expedited Travel Approval - much sooner than we woudld anticipate; and leading as we make plans for our 3 other childrne while we are in China.
  • Financial assistance for the costs associated with her adoption (The total will be around $32,000). While it is humbling to include this we sensed that we should. We know that helping financially is a gift some have been given, and we do not have the right to let our pride get in the way of those of you who are called to serve in this way.
