Dear A Child Waits and its Generous Donors,
Charlie has been home a little over a month, just in time to celebrate his second birthday, and we cannot imagine life without him! He is the most joyful, fun-loving boy, who lights up a rooms as soon as he enters. This was my second adoption as a single and I was fully aware of the financial challenges when I said yes to once again welcoming a child with special needs into our family. How would I pay for the adoption? Would I have enough after to pay for medical co-pays and deductibles? What about other unknowns and financial emergencies? However, just as with my first adoption, I was confident that when God calls, He provides the means. In both adoptions, He did that in part though the generosity of A Child Waits. News of the grant award came just as I was preparing to travel, faced with those costs as well as a substantial orphanage donation. This generous gift not only helped me cover these final costs, but, along with other personal gifts, paved the way so I could return from China still having some savings for Charlie's future medical needs and other unknows. As a single parent, it is such a relief to know that I am not starting our new life as a family of three in debt. As an adoptive parent, grant recipient, and adoption professional, I am forever grateful to your wonderful organization and all the work you do for children and families.I am forever grateful to your wonderful organization and all the work you do for children and families.
Blessings,
