the blessing of friends...

There is an old African proverb that says, "Go FAST, go alone;  Go FAR, go together..."  The older I get the truer this becomes.  The daily steps of pursuing Paxton continues.  Bank statements, questions, and finger print waivers sit on my desk.  We have to open up our souls and our lives daily, and it can be stressful @ times feeling like you have to answer every question perfectly or you will be rejected by the adoption agency.  But then I see the hands of so many friends getting "dirty" right along side us.  One friend passionalty looking for creative ways to help us raise funds; 5 sets of couples, taking hours of their life to fill out reference forms on our behalf; and still others, giving from their lives financially (I just recieved another $25 check yesterday).

I am excited for all of us on this journey together.  Thank you so very much for your daily encouragements.  We are passionate about going far together with you in this proces...
