We are counting down the days until this Friday, October 14th! This Friday is the day we turn in our portfolio so that it can be shown to birth moms! Please be praying for us as we finish our portfolio. Pray that God will give us the words, ideas, pictures, and creativity to make the portfolio He desires for us to make. Pray that our portfolio will be an encouragement to all those who read it. Pray that the case workers will know which birth moms to share our portfolio with. Pray for discernment for the birth moms as they make their adoption plans. Pray that God will also open up the time for the portfolio to be completed. We have a packed week ahead, so we definitely need God's help!
In preparation for our meeting Friday, we have continued the decoration of our baby room! Eric's mom spent this past weekend with us. She took us baby shopping, which included helping us pick out a crib mattress and gender-neutral crib bedding! We are so excited about the progression of the room because it allows us to include the baby's room in our portfolio! It is definitely a change for us to see a made-up baby bed! We are looking forward to seeing who God has picked out for us to parent! I enjoy going in the baby's room to pray over the bed, the room, and the child that will occupy them. We've waited so long, so we are ready for Friday to come!

Progress!
Our 2nd mandatory meeting is next Friday, October 14th. That is the day we will turn in our portfolio and $1,300 for our portfolio to be shown to birth moms.
We are having a Premier Designs jewelry catalog show fundraiser this week to help bring in the remaining balance for our portfolio showing fee.
We have been very busy getting our support letters together. They were mailed out yesterday and today! Please be praying for God's financial provisions. There's no telling what the time line will be once our portfolio begins to be shown, so we are trying to raise our adoption fee of $13,000 by November 5th.
Please keep up the prayers. We desire for God to receive all the honor and glory through this process! Pray for our letters as they are received, for the birth moms, for our case worker, and for our future child.
