An Amazing Experience!

We had the opportunity this week to visit 4 Paws for Ability and all I can say is WOW! We got to visit the August training class and got to witness first hand the children receiving their dogs. It was such an amazing experience that words cannot begin to describe it. The child were so excited to get their dogs! There was a few that got overwhelmed by it but there was one little girl that was upset while waiting to get her dog and it was taking her parents everything they could do to keep her with them and somewhat calm. Well as her dog was brought to her within minutes she calmed down and began petting her dog and giving it treats. The dog kept licking her hands and she finally sat down and loved on her dog. It was truly magical! As if I wasn't convinced before, I'm definitely convinced now that all the hard work and the waiting will be so well worth it in the end to see Noah be that excited about his dog too. It's one of those things that you just have to see for yourself to believe it and I'm so glad that we had the opportunity to see it! Thanks to 4 Paws for allowing us to sit in on this class and thanks to all the families, who may not have even realized we were there, for letting us share in the experience with them! I can't wait for our turn!!

Please continue to pray for our journey as we patiently wait for our turn! If you are able and wish to help us in getting Noah's dog home, please see the "Doggie Wish List" to the left of this page and let us know if there is something you can help us with! As always, thanks for all your prayers!! They are being answered and they are felt daily!

Praise God!! What a blessing!

Just wanted to send a quick update to let you all know that we have received enough donations through various means so far to cover 8 of the 12 nights we will be staying at training!! I feel so blessed!

Thank you to those who have made this possible! You know who you are!

Summer's here!!

Just wanted to give a quick update and let everyone know that we are all doing well! We are still working diligently on our video and my goal is to have it in the mail to the organization by the first week of July. We are already falling behind with it but hope to pick up and catch up soon!

Noah is having a great summer and we are staying very busy! We don't spend much time at home these days as we are out having too much fun!

I'm considering having a small fundraiser towards the end of summer to help with the costs of out trip. I'm not sure yet if we will and if so what it will be but I'll keep you posted!! I've estimated the cost at about $3000 for the trip and that doesn't include the supplies we need for the dog once it's home. Please take a moment to look at our "Doggie Wish List" to the left and if you are able to help us with any of these things please feel free to contact me! Any help is greatly appreciated! As always, we ask for your prayers more than anything!

Have a great summer!
