We received an adoption assistance grant in the amount of $4000.
I couldn't believe my eyes. The tears just started to flow and all I could do was thank God. I called Matt. He asked if I was shedding happy tears? Well of course I was, and I couldn't seem to stop. We are so blessed and I know that God has a plan. We have faith in Him and we will have faith in His timing. This is getting us closer and closer to raising all of the funds needed to bring home Clayton's Brother or Sister. We still need to raise the $3000 for the Hand in Hand Matching grant. (**See below for information on how you can submit a donation.) We have had a few donations and I know there are a few more coming.

We have lots of things going on and a few more things coming up. We are looking at doing a spaghetti dinner or chili supper at home and in Louisville in the next couple of months. We will be doing another yard sale in 3 weeks and I am looking for donations of items for a auction. If anyone out there is willing to donate a tablet type device (Ipad, Samsung tablet etc.) let me know. We would love to do a raffle in conjunction with some of our other functions.
I hope everyone has a wonderful night! I know we are!
God Bless!
