I should be having a VERY exciting post coming today or tomorrow so I wanted to make sure to get this posted.

Trevor, Big K, Little K, Our +1 and I would like to say how thankful we are for each and every one of you. Thank you for your prayers, encouragement, prayers, prayers, and donations. Thank you for keeping up with our crazy life by reading our blog. Thank you for caring! I really didn't think I would get emotional right now writing this but the tears are flowing. We are just truly amazed by the support we have received. I can't tell you how much easier it makes this journey!

God, thank You for putting people in our life who are truly concerned about taking care of Your orphans. Thank You for the words You give them to encourage us. They always seem to be just the right words on just the right day. Thank You for our +1. Thank You for taking care of him by giving him the nourishment, love and energy he needs until we come and get him. Thank You for the MANY blessings You have given us.

Please know that this is truly our prayer for each and every one of you! We love you dearly...

^"3 Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. ⁴ Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, ⁵ for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now. ⁶ And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

 ⁷ So it is right that I should feel as I do about all of you, for you have a special place in my heart. You share with me the special favor of God, both in my imprisonment and in defending and confirming the truth of the Good News. ⁸ God knows how much I love you and long for you with the tender compassion of Christ Jesus.
 ⁹ I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. ¹⁰ For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return. ¹¹ May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ^[a]—for this will bring much glory and praise to God." Phil. 1:3-11
