Lately, we have been asked the same questions by multiple people. I think many people have the same questions so this post is to answer those questions.
1) Why do you need to fundraise more money?
The first adoption was a shorter placement, which meant less money. Because we are taking a longer placement the adoption is more expensive.
Right now we are working on some ideas for Christmas gifts. My favorite part of this project is experimenting with recipes for sugar scrub. Today's experiment was a lemon coconut scrub (which was surprisingly awesome).
We are also hoping to have another garage sale in January or February. We do still have t-shirts for sale. We are open to other fundraising ideas.
2) If this is a girl, are you going to "reuse" the name Talitha?
Yes, we are. The other little baby girl was not our daughter. She was not our Talitha. We have no doubt that someday God will bless us with our daughter.
3) What if this baby is a boy?
We would be thrilled to have a son.
4) Do you already have a boy name picked out? And what is it?
Yes. That has been a closely guarded secret for a while.
My question is now to you all. Which two seem to be the best ideas for Christmas gift fundraiser:
1) Various sugar scrubs
2) Christmas lanterns
3) Baked goods- Millennium Falcon shaped cookies amongst other more traditional cookies or delicious pumpkin bread
4) Custom made earrings or bookmarks
We'd like your input either here or on Facebook. Or if you have a different idea please feel free to share that as well.
As always, we thank you all for your love, your support, and your prayers. We are so very blessed with all of you.
