I'm taking it as a sign



Last night while I was reading blogs I once again got to see the precious girl that I have prayed and prayed for. For awhile I was so happy because she had a family. Unfortunately it didn't work out and my precious girl needs a home fast!!! Scott and I live a good life, we have what we need (more even) and are able to pay our bills. However, that's about it. We don't have much left over at the end of the month and once we build up a savings it's time for Christmas or some other big thing comes up. So money is what is preventing us from committing to an adoption through Reece's Rainbow at this time. I was reading Renee's blog and I see my girl again. Her previous committed family is doing an amazing fundraiser to help double Carlene's grant fund! She already has a grant of $9,500!!! If this is doubled there is a great chance that our family could do this. We could commit to bring her home! Naturally,we would have to make sure we have family support for this since there would still be a need for more of the funds. However, there's a chance!!! So hop on over to Renee's blog and chip in to win a Kindle!!! For just a $10 donation you can enter to win a Kindle, how cool is that?


So, I'm taking this as a sign. It's a sign to spread the word about Carlene, she's already been transferred to a mental institution. This is devastating. She has such potential! She is a precious 5 year little girl that needs a family to help her grow and flourish. If she is meant to be ours, it will happen. If not, the least I can do is help out her family to help bring her home!
