Paper pregnancy and Taylor to Haiti

Well today was a lot of hard work, about 8 hours of paperwork and had to do it all while dealing with a migraine! But we did accomplish a ton and our list of Adoption to do's is a lot shorter. We also wrote and printed our Christmas/Support letter that we will be sending out next week. Excited to share the news with lots of friends and family.

Well as most of you know Taylor returned home just last week from a mission trip to Haiti. She went with her Bible Study leader and two other girls from her Bible Study. They had an amazing time there and God did great things through the team. It was so great to see her love for others and for the poor blossom even more. They really connected with an orphanage there and plan to continue a relationship to help support ground operations. They are going again and plan on spending a month or so this next trip! Next up Taylor is going to Portland with her college group to attend a Winter Conference there through Campus Crusade for Christ. Daniel and I are playing taxi and taking her and a few friends out there. We will be gone the 27th through the 2nd and looking forward to celebrating a late Christmas with my brother and his family. We are hoping to see lots of our Oregon family while there :)

Thank you all for praying for Taylor and for her safe travels. God took great care of them! I am encouraging Taylor to put some thoughts down and make a blog post here to share with you all how letting love lead got her to Haiti!

We continue to ask for prayer for finances as we hope to send our dossier out at the end of the month and it requires a big stack of mula! We are moving along in faith and going as quickly as possible, wanting our kiddos under our roof again!

We love you all and hope your finding unique and special ways to celebrate Jesus this month.

Hugs, The Herzogs
