Kim and Suze


Promoting Adoption for National Adoption Month
5 days until we leave and time is really passing quick! Today, a dear friend of ours, Kim Hendrix, interviewed Suze on WSFA's Alabama Live to promote adoption. November is National Adoption Month. You can watch the interview by clicking http://www.wsfa.com/global/video/popup/pop_playerLaunch.asp?clipid1=1942379&at1=News&vt1=v&h1=Local+Family+Prepares+for+Adoption&d1=352867&redirUrl=www.wsfa.com&activePane=info&LaunchPageAdTag=homepage . Above are some pictures. We also wanted to send a special thank you to everyone who donated medicine for Sam's orphanage. We know they will be very grateful for the supplies. Also pictured above is the outfit that Sam will be wearing when he gets Baptized. Thank you to our dear sweet friend Dot (Aunt Dot to Sam) for purchasing the suit.... it is such a special gift and we will forever cherish it! We also want to send a special thanks to Judy and Jerry... (Sam's Mimi and Papasan).. we love the both of you very much for and we Praise God for Him bringing you into our lives! Our Sunday School class prayed over us yesterday and you could truly feel the presence of our Heavenly Father. God's timing is perfect and we know there is a reason for us to be getting our son during this season of Thanksgiving! Please pray that all of our flights arrive and depart on time (and that our luggage arrives with us)!!God Bless you all! We will try and post again before we leave!! We should be able to post every day while in China.

You're almost there! I can't wait to follow your journey! I'll be praying for safe travels and NO delays (I am the queen of delays, you know!!)
Happy Thanksgiving!

We can see why you were so excited. Sam's a handsome young man. God speed. We'll continue to pray.
