the result from our fall goal for the adoption

I already shared this on social media, but because I posted it on the blog, I figured I should share here too ;P

In August, I set a lofty goal of raising $25,000 for our adoption by the New Year. When December came, I readjusted that goal to $15,000 and I’m pleased to share we closed out 2022 with a total of $12,727 in our adoption fund.

However, we also spent over $8,000 on our consulting firm, home study, legal paperwork, profile book, & other fees/supplies, so in reality…this year you helped us raise over $20,000 towards our adoption. 🤯🥰

Speechless. Truly. You guys are proof that there are caring people in the world who desperately want to be a part of a story with a happy ending. 🤟🏻🙂 And because of you, two boys will have a forever home with us, hopefully in 2023. 😉

Our crew will be resting from fundraisers this month (you’re still welcome to donate or get it name on puzzle pieces – Venmo/Cashapp @/$sarahmshaver) and we’ll come with a fresh game plan in February.

While we take recharge, please continue to follow & share our story! 😁 & please join us in praying for God to clearly show us our next steps on this journey + for the precious expectant mama to find us.
