blessed!

i am so overwhelmed with God's graciousness and provisions...

AND

thankful for you the hands He used to work through!

i have to be honest that when

my sweet friend Angela asked about organizing a mini-drive

entitled "blessings for Brazil"...

my mind thought... a couple of walmart bags full of groceries

and some perfectly good hand me downs out of houses around here...

I HAD NO IDEA!!

please know that EVERYTHING each of you has done

matters immensely!

i may never get the chance to sit across

from each of you that have sacrificially given

to our family...

(buying groceries for us to take...

washing twin sheets to deliver ready to pack...

cleaning out suitcases so we could have them

or buying ones so we would have enough...

shopping all over for household items we need...

i could keep going...

this pic does not do it justice)

but know that we have been greatly impacted!

WE ARE SO GRATEFUL

THAT GOD MOVED ON YOUR HEARTS

TO BLESS US, 

THANK YOU!

update for today is...

we are still waiting on alot of pieces to fall into place

before we can travel... so we are back in the wait!

please continue to pray Chloe and Emily
as we wait on God's timing :)

Erik is adjusting well...

and we've now officially begun Stephen's process.

thanks for hanging with us through

all the turns and detours,

we need you our prayer warriors!
