We definitely have received a huge gift and are so thankful. You know I am the type of person that has a really hard time asking for any help and accepting help...cause you know I can do it myself :))!! Anyway, I have always been that way but we are trying to do this adoption by adding no debt. We are saving and scrimping and we'll do what we have to but it would be awesome to do it without adding debt. So we decided to apply for a grant through Shaohannah's Hope. If you don't recognize the name it is Steven Curtis Chapman's foundation. They are awesome in that they help families with adoption grants and they have a huge adoption ministry. So we applied several months ago and we just heard back on Saturday and we did receive a grant......$4,000. How awesome is that. You can look at it this way, it will cover between 80-100% of our international airline tickets. That is a huge gift and we are very humbled and thankful!!!! Now we just have to keep doing our part, work, work, work, save, save, save!!
