"I can do
all things
through Christ

strengtheneth
me."

Some friends of mine have found out recently that they are
going May 5th to go get their little girl from China and I am so
excited for them.  I can't wait to meet her.  They will name her
Grace, which is a great name, since it really is the Grace of God
that is allowing to them to adopt her. 
I have even met a girl who is single and has adopted from Vietnam in the past and is in the process of waiting on her second referral from there.  I will have a chance to meet her and that will be a great way for me to find out what to expect.  She will know more about what it is like raising a child from another country as a single person.  I also found out today that I will not be able to start the Entertainment Books fundraiser until July 2006, which is very disappointing, but I am planning on doing another fundraiser in it's place.  I am planning on selling Rada Cutlery.  Once I get that started all you will have to do is go to my site on the internet and order from there.  They have a lot of great stuff on there.  I also, will be doing another thing online too.  This place is (Current, Inc) will have miscellaneous things you can buy.  It is weird to think that next year at this time, I will be in my last semester of school and in a couple of months I will be starting the process.  God has been so good!  I just got all 4 of my wisdom teeth out and if I had not had the pain and gotten them out until after I had adopted Kayleigh, then, I do not know how I would have managed everything.  I have been in a lot of pain since I got them out and that is where God has been watching out for me.  Please continue to pray for me and all the fundraising I am doing.

What does Kayleigh mean?  I was thinking about that today and thought I would go to google.com and check it out.  Well, I had to separate it to find out.  "Kay" means "Pure" and "Leigh" means "Meadow", so she is a "Pure Meadow".  That sounds nice.  I am glad I picked that name.

This past weekend my cousin got married and most of my family was here.  I was able to share about the adoption with everyone.  I was real nervous about telling them, but it turned out ok.  I want to thank everyone for the response
got.  I have added a new feature to my site.  You can now send money via Paypal.  All you need to do is click on the "Donate" button under the Fundraiser page.  You can also see how much I have raised as well in the Fundraiser page.
