This is the story of our journey of faith to adopt our daughter Savannah from Guatemala. We give all the praise and all the glory to God for His faithfulness in allowing us to bring her home forever in May 2007! We are so thankful for our two beautiful daughters, Mackenzie & Savannah!

EDITED/UPDATED: A Family For Grady...

Every child deserves a home and a family to call their own. This post was inspired by my friend Jeanette and parts were taken from her blog, Blessed By Baseballs & Bows.

EDIT/UPDATE: For a video of Grady singing, click on this link.



This is Grady. He turned 13 years old on June 3rd of this year. On June 3rd of next year, he will age out of China's adoption program and will no longer be eligible for adoption. Sadly, his SWI just submitted his paperwork 2 months ago -which doesn't give him much time to find a family.

You can't see it in this picture, but Grady has scoliosis. It is so severe that is has caused him to be much shorter than he would have been. Apparently he has to place all of his weight on only one of his legs -and we've been told that he cannot feel that side of his body. He walks with crutch like canes....but LONGS to be able to run and play just like other boys his age.

For more information on Grady, please visit Jeanette's blog for details! This little boy has really touched her family and they just feel compelled to pray for him and advocate for his adoption into a loving family of his own!
