An Announcement

June 10, 2012 by Ami 16 Comments

Well, we aren't expecting.

But we are expecting.

Nope, not a baby. 

But children.

From Colombia.

Yes, our feet are on the road to adoption!

It will be a long walk, and I will chronicle our story here. 

And we are expecting God to do great things. 

Please pray for us.

I am asking that you write my name down, stick it somewhere, and intentionally intercede for us (the four here and two not yet here). Thank you.

    Do you have a “button” we can place in our sidebars to drawn further attention to your bracelets?

    Congratulations, Ami and family! I will be praying for you! We are an adoptive family and it has been such a blessing. We adopted from Guatemala, 8 years ago.

    Hi! I LOVE the bracelets from Haiti–they are beautiful! I can’t order anything right now, but would love to talk to you about Colombian adoption if you would like. I followed you back here from your comments on MY blog. šŸ™‚ We are living in Mexico right now, learning Spanish. Anyway, I love to talk about adoption.

    Hi! I am so very happy to find your blog. I was looking for reviews of Write Shop and enjoyed yours. Then I found your creative writing lessons and almost fell over. I am so excited and am going to use your lessons. We are a large family and finding anything that is so awesome and free is amazing!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. We are also a family who has been blessed by adoption. We have 4 bio kids and 2 daughters (sibs) from Ethiopia (adopted in 09). We are in the end process of adopting a 5 yr. old from China. I will pray for your family as you adopt your children. What a blessing. Anything hard is so worth it. I am off to buy a couple of your bracelets for Christmas presents. God bless you! Julie
