1st Fund Raiser

This weekend we are having a garage sale with all of the money going towards bringing Adia home. Thankfully the weather has been perfect and we had a great turnout.
Titus and Creed sold cookies and drinks, they spent some time on Thursday coloring pictures of Africa and Ethiopia is always red with a heart. Ty tells everyone that Adia is far far away in Ethiopia, and the money is going to help bring her home. People have been so kind and generous, the cookies are .50 and drink .25 most everyone just hands them a dollar and takes cookies and says keep the change. We have even had 1 man give $6 for 2 cookies and a drink. Another today gave him $10 for 4 cookies and 2 drinks. God always provides, and it has been neat to see it in this unique way.
It has also been neat to share with people the great need of orphans and our burden. pictures are to come :-)

Great Adoption Song

This music video has been going around AGCI blogs and Faceb**k pages and I love it so I had to share it too :-) The lyrics are below and here's a link to Aaron and Jamie's blog.



AMOS STORY
Aaron Ivey. ©2009 IVEYMUSIC. (ASCAP)

Another photograph to wrestle in my head
Another sleepless night on concrete featherbed
These thoughts of you like bullets to my soul
We’ve got to find a way to get you home

I’ll find a way to get you here
If it takes my fleeting breath
Another sunrise hits the ground
And it’s a dark lonely sight
Light years away I hope you know
There is somebody searching
For the way to get you here

I will get you here


Throw the clocks away and run out to the street
We’ll fly to distant clouds where it’s just you and me
A day will come when all of this is gone
You’ve got to find a way to believe

I’ll find a way to get you here
If it takes my fleeting breath

Another sunrise hits the ground
And it’s a dark lonely sight

Light years away I hope you know
There is somebody searching

For the way to get you here
I will get you here


Close your eyes and dream of a better day with me
As angels hold you tight, may you sleep in peace tonight

So dream, dream, dream my child
Hear the whisperings of hope

It’s a song that you can sing, as you sleep in peace tonight
