Closure!

Well, we found out today that last week an email was sent out that we were somehow left off of. In there was the info that the adoption offices in Peyton's country are closing July 11th for maybe 3 months so they can transfer offices. We can still submit up till that time, but unless we can get there, meet him, and get approved by the 11th, we can not continue the adoption process till they open back up.

In the letter they encouraged ppl to try to have things ready so they could be submitted by today. We would have made today's submission if it were not for that paper mistake we had to redo this week. They are still going to submit us next week probably. So for us to not have to wait till the fall, we will have to get submitted Thurs and then get an appt date for that next wk, which would mean having a few days to get ready and travel. Then we would have to fly through the process in country super fast. It would pretty much be a MIRACLE! So the next few wks will either be incredibly insane for us running all over getting ready and traveling... or it will be three months till we go anywhere and know anything. I don't even know if financially we could leave next wk to travel. We have the funds for the 1st trip but not for the 2nd.

We are just praying and knowing God has this. All is for the best and will work out how it is intended to. It is just hard to be so close and now not really know what will happen. Thank you for praying with us!

Love

hiccup

Ok so our passport copies were all certified and apostilled together... which is not supposed to happen. They need them all separate to send to different places in the country. So we have to have them redone and sent over there ASAP!!! So no submission this week. Must get submitted by next week! Pray!

News to pray over

Just found out that the area Peyton is in is hard to adopt from and that the last person they had try was unsuccessful. Also, his orphanage director is not very cooperative with adoptions. So please pray over this starting now. We should be mailing dossier Monday! I am thinking we will be in country around the third week or so of July. Pray we get a good judge and that the director has a soft heart for us and Peyton and that they all let us adopt him! Also pray that we don't have to be there forever trying to get it all worked out because we have three kids staying here in the US with my sis and her 3 kids. I know God can move mountains and prayer is powerful, so let's get on it... there seem to be so many up in the air things in this adoption we are pursuing, but we will keep going no matter what. We are going to fight for Peyton as much as we can. Thank you!

i171h arrived!!!!

Hello hello!!! Well we got our i171h (US immigration approval)Wednesday!!!! But then Thurs realized it was for the wrong country... so finally talked to the lady today and got her to fax me a copy of the new corrected one! Too late to do paperwork today but should get to it first thing Monday and then mail dossier!!!

I put a new chip in on the side bar. There is now a place to donate straight to us, a place to donate to Reeces Rainbow for a tax deduction and they will put it into Peyton's fund, and there is a place to buy a shirt and one for coffee purchases.

We are working on some more fundraising ideas. If you want to help but can't monetarily, maybe you can do your own fundraiser in your town for Peyton!!! If a lot of people all over do this, maybe we can reach our goal!

Thanks for your support!

Help us spread the word

Hey everyone... we still have not heard from USCIS on our approval yet, but it should be any day now. Knowing that it is just around the corner... we totaled up some stuff and we realize that we are still currently about $9,000 short on the expenses it will take to get Peyton home! Can you please help us out by sharing our blog on your facebook pages and such so that friends and family all over can know our need and have a chance to support us if they feel so called? We would be very grateful! Thanks to those of you who have done this already!!! We are praying for God to move big! We have seen how he has been moving already to get us this far. We know that he will make a way to continue to do what he has called us to. Please pray with us! Thank you so much!

Love,

2nd yard sale...

Ok we had our 2nd yard sale today... went great... we made around $345, not too bad. We still have a garage full of stuff too, CRAZY!!!

We still haven't heard from USCIS on our approval yet :( So we will not be submitting prior to the date of possible country changes... please pray that no change happens this month but that if they do that they will not keep us from getting him as planned and that it doesn't make the process harder or longer or more expensive!

Thanks

Opportunity knocks...

Hello,

I have had a great opportunity come before me and over much prayer we have decided to move fwd with it. We have just signed up to be an Advocare Independent Distributor. We have our own website through the company that people can go to an order products from. www.AdvoCare.com/1106811 However, if you are interested, please contact me first so that we make sure to educate you and figure out what your goals are and what would be best for you!

We are using this first and foremost as a fundraiser for Peyton's adoption. All income made from this business opportunity will go to the cost of the adoption. Once the adoption is funded, some income will go to things such as mission trips and helping others with adoption. The more the business grows, the more we will be able to do for others! We have heard many stories of friends who have used these products as well as of those who have become distributors. The success stories are amazing on both ends! We have seen people fund entire adoptions and mission trips just from this income and we have seen people lose lbs and inches faster than ever. My advisor after one year is now making $80k a year in this business and her family is healthier, feels better, and has much more freedom in all aspects of their life! Please consider getting information and talking to us about purchasing and using product or if you are interested in starting the business venture yourself.

There are all sorts of supplements available and they are thoroughly scientifically researched and this is an established and respectable company that has been around since the 90's. Available supplements are: weight loss, energy, muscle building, snacks, meal replacements, vitamins, probiotics, energy drinks, and more! See the website and contact me for details.

Some things we are really excited about and are promoting are the 24 day challenge, MNS packs, and Spark drinks. Please see the website for details.

The more we sell, the more profit we make. There are even rookie bonuses given out by the company. So if we are very successful in this first month, we can possibly make thousands of dollars right away!!! This would be great for getting Peyton home! So please try something for yourself and spread this information around to those you know who may be interested. You can help yourself as well as help change a little boy's life forever!!!

It is not just for those who may want to lose weight, gain energy, build muscle, get healthy, etc... but it also for those interested in a business opportunity. Please contact me for more information. Education is important! We are new at this and are still learning but I want to introduce you to my advisor who can educate you and tell you their story and others. We have been inspired and I know you will too! Opportunity is knocking, will you open the door?

Thank you to all who have participated in helping get Peyton home thus far! We are incredibly grateful! We are not there yet and need to try everything we can to raise the funds needed in the next month or two.

In love and faith,
Chrissy and Erick Wilson
