Is Christmas really over?

NO! It never really is! We have the priviledge of celebrating Jesus coming to us all year long. How blessed we are to have such a Savior. :o) We continue to wait for the precious child God has for us. God is faithful and we look forward to what He has in store. Many blessings to you all for the coming year! ~Donnis

Yes, we're still waiting :o)

November 8 will be the 3 month mark since our online profile became "live". That's the agencies average waiting time to be matched with a birthmother. However, we must still continue to believe that God's timeclock is not ours, and He has the ultimate plan. Boy, is that hard, but still very true. We pray you are all blessed this week. Love, Donnis

It's LIVE!

Wow! We never expected our adoption Profile Webpage to be up and running this fast, but we received word from ANLC that it was LIVE today! Feel free to take a peek, and don't forget to keep praying! God is good...Donnis

$36,000 Oh My!

Yes, as I swallow the big lump in my throat...$36,000 is what this little miracle is gonna cost us. Is it worth it? You bet ya, EVERY PENNY. Where will it come from? Heaven's Bank & Trust! Seriously, some of our friends have asked how they might contribute. First and foremost is simply PRAYER. We believe God is in this and He has a special plan. We are praying for the future birthmother and the baby she will be carrying. We pray for her and the baby's health and sense of God's presence. As for the finances, we have a donation account set up at Austin Bank. Donations can be delivered or mailed to any Austin Bank. Please specify Henderson Family Adoption Fund account #3410029429. The mailing address is P.O. Box 998 Marshall, TX 75671-0998. Your prayers and/or donations are appreciated MORE THAN YOU COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE. We look forward to what God has in store through this miracle of adoption, and sharing this little one with you all. :o)

Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

It's FINALLY on it's way!!

We finally got all 96 pictures of us, our family and our home, two birthmother letters, a question & answer page and 3 paragraphs about us to send on a disk to Adoption Network Law Center! One of the pics we're sending is attached. It takes them about 3 weeks to assemble our profiles on their 3 websites. Sooo, we hope to be "online" by August 19th. I am sending the disk tomorrow to Cali. May you be blessed today. :o) Blessings, Donnis

Please pray for Lily, mommy & daddy

Lily was taken to Christus Shumpert Sullens Children's Hospital in Shreveport yesterday (Friday) due to an elevated level in white blood count. Doctors think it is due to a possible infection from her belly button area and/or more jaundice. Please pray for her healing and for Jeannie to get some rest. She has had very little sleep since the baby was born. Thanks everyone! ~Donnis

Welcome Lily Ann Weaver!

Here she is, isn't she beautiful?! Abby saw her in the nursery right after birth and asked, "Where's huh dipuh?"

Here we go....

Well, been wanting to start this-here-blogging-thing for a long time, but while the boys are vacationing with family, I've found the ability to get this rig started! We plan to keep this updated so that all of our dear friends can keep up with our craziness....we sure can't!!! In all seriousness, we have begun a new journey with the second adoption agency and are very hopeful! We'll get that link to you when our adoption profile is up and running. Please pray for us as we seek God's will for our family addition and for the health of our future birthmother and precious baby. Blessings to you all! ~Donnis
