Well, another hurricane has come and gone and we have been blessed once again with no damage. Hurricane Gustav did not come close to Orange and we are so thankful. We did have a mandatory evacuation and we were gone for four days. We took advantage of the situation and made it a little mini vacation as we did not go anywhere this summer. Trying to save up for our trip to China. Hope everyone had a safe trip and everything is back to normal now.
As stated in my last post, we are conducting a fundraising raffle for our trip. We are required to make a $3,000 donation to the orphanage and we need help coming up with that amount. If you would like to register to win either the Nintendo Wii or an iPod Shuffle, just find the red box and click on "Chip In" and you can register as many times as you wish. Please feel free to let family and friends know about the raffle. Good luck and may the best person win!!!

UNTIL FOREVER
This morning in China a mother cries
She'll never forget her daughter's eyes
Her heart is broken and filled with pain
Her tears run down like the falling rain.
She has no choice but to leave her there
The cost of keeping is too much to bear.
She hopes her daughter will one day know
True love can be found in letting her go.
This morning in China a baby cries
Hungry and scared as tears fill her eyes
Her mother has left her in this public place
Another lost daughter of the Chinese race.
Someone passing has heard her soft moan
She is soon taken to a foster home.
It's here she'll reside in the care of another
Until she's adopted by a brand new mother.
That very same day in the U.S.A.
A woman cries as she starts to pray
Her heart is heavy but filled with much love
She prays for a daughter she thinks the world of
"Dear Jesus, I ask that your arms would be
Wrapped tightly around the one picked for me
Guard her in China until I make my way
and then in my arms she'll forever stay."

Ye have received the Sprit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
