Valentine's Day Surprise

Less than a month after we decided to stop worrying so much about everything and stop attempting to control the timeline of our adoption process, the Lord truly blessed us in a beautiful and mighty way!

My husband’s 3rd grade GATE class and the previous two years classes (now 4th and 5th grade GATE classes) secretly raised money over the course of a week and a half and presented it to him on Valentine’s Day!! Those amazing kids raised a grand total of $1,072!! They were so excited to be able to bless us with this and we are so incredibly grateful! Words can’t even begin to express how we feel – the Lord is working in our adoption and he is showing up BIG and in avenues that we never even imaged! The kids told us how some of them had lemonade stands in their neighborhoods and others made cards and pictures. We are so blessed!
