God is GOOD!!!

You guys, I am completely blown away!  Last time I shared an update on our adoption costs we were $1315.00 in the red.  As of today, we are only $86 in the red!!!!  We only need $86 to pay for our homestudy!  Did I mention that GOD IS GOOD?!  I am tearing up just typing this.  There is no way we can thank you all enough for your support.  I have had so many friends jump at the opportunity to host a Thirty One party...thank you!  I asked my mom to help me test out our PayPal account by putting $1 in there and she put in $25...thank you!  One of my best girlfriends from high school and her husband generously donated $250...thank you!  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
