Amazed at the love we have received!

I guess it's time for an update!

We were hard pressed this past weekend to raise over $2000 for initial fees and wouldn't you know it...God took care of it.  I was stressed and worried that we'd have to release our Charlie.  Our sweet friend, Amanda came to our rescue and helped with an auction and helped rally many, many people to help us raise the money that we needed.

I am always amazed how the Lord takes care of every situation that our family faces.  I don't know why I get all worked up when I know He's got this!  I cannot express the gratitude and humbleness and love we feel because of the many friends and strangers that graciously gave to help us.  We pray that each of you will see God multiply your gift to us and that He will show you favor.  We know that for many it was a step of faith to give.

We created a Facebook page dedicated to our adoption of Charlie  https://www.facebook.com/OurFamily92?ref=aymt_homepage_panel .

Another exciting thing that happened...we now have our Family Sponorship Page (FSP) up on Reece's Rainbow!  Please stop over and take a look.

We have several fundraisers in mind for the next few months so keep watching our Facebook page and here on our blog!

Another Goodhue Blessing!

As many of you know, we are just beginning the adoption journey to bring home the newest addition to our family!  I am honestly in shock and can't believe WE are joining so many of our friends in this exciting adventure!

Meet "Charlie" ~

He is two years old just like Oliver so we will have our set of twins. :)  There is a little something extra special about "Charlie".  He was born with Down syndrome.  Those of you that know Alyssa's (our daughter) heart and passion will understand just how special that is.  Through her, I have come to meet several families that have adopted a child or children with Down syndrome and have learned just how un-scary it really is and what a blessing it is to have this special part included in your family.

This adoption journey will come with its challenges but we trust that God will help us work through each step.  We will be coming up with creative ways to raise funds and hope that some of you will join us.

We've included the link to our YouCaring page along the right hand side for those of you that would like to help our family that way.  We covet your prayers as this is going to take some mighty big blessings to bring Charlie home.

Thank you for loving our family,

The Goodhue Clan
