Puzzle Update #2

It has been a week since our last puzzle update. This week really knocked our socks off as God continued to remind us that our provision is coming from him. That he's got this. 500 puzzle pieces is not too big for him. Not sure why I ever thought it would be....hello, we're talking about the guy who created the world in 6 days. We were blessed by everyone who gave this week. This week included an anonymous giver, friends I haven't seen in years, people we have never met, family and new friends. THANK YOU so much to everyone who gave towards our adoption. I also have to recognize my husband who is working hard to put this thing together. All of the pieces look exactly alike (yea, we didn't really think that through when we ordered it) and he has worked hard to figure out how they fit together (I gave up after 2 pieces). So here are the results

This week we added 94 pieces to our puzzle....94!!!! We were able to add the entire border and a few extra pieces to our puzzle..woo hoo!!!!




That puts our total at 113 pieces. That means we are over 1/5 complete with our puzzle! 
That also means that we still have 387 pieces to sell. 

We would LOVE to have the puzzle completed by April. Our homestudy is scheduled for the first week in April and this fundraiser will totally cover the cost. Would you consider buying a piece or pieces to help us reach our goal? Remember that pieces are only $10 each (that's a fast food meal). We will write your name across the number of pieces you buy, so that once the puzzle is framed between glass, we can flip it over and show our son everyone who helped bring him home. 

I heard that some people were having trouble with paypal, so if you would rather donate through a check, you can mail it to us here:

Be sure to put "adoption puzzle" in the memo and a note with what name you would like written on the pieces.

A BIG thank you to the following people who gave this week. You guys are so A-MAZING!
