Answered Prayer!

       Just checking in with an exciting update- the Dubbs family is now fully funded to complete their adoption of two beautiful deaf girls from Asia! You can read more details about their successful fundraisers, grants, and generous givers on their blog at http://followinghisleadtochina.blogspot.com/2014/12/thank-you.html. Lori leaves to pick up her girls in three days and has sacrificed Christmas morning together with her family to get them home in early 2015.  Thanks for your prayers and support.

          I am still trying to raise awareness and an adoption grant for "my" Nikolajs.  Older boys with special needs face an uphill battle in being chosen for adoption, but he is just a kid who needs a chance.  Please help share Nikolajs' need for a family!

            And I'd like to feature just a couple other kids eligible for adoption who are currently listed on Reece's Rainbow, an advocacy website. First is sweet Abigail! Abigail is almost 4 year old and is described as tiny and social.  Abigail has an awesome advocate who blogs about her and several other precious little ones.  Her blog is here and you can read more about Abigail by clicking on her name.

       Next up, there are 141 kids who still have under $500 in their Angel Tree accounts.  They are all listed here.  If you donate $5 or more to any of these precious ones, you can enter a super giveaway at http://forallourangels.blogspot.com.   Maybe you want to give to Nikolajs, but if you'd prefer someone else, consider Robert who currently has the smallest grant. 

Or maybe Erikson who is the closest to $250 in his grant. 

Or maybe little Kent who still has a long ways to go to meet his goal.
