 The girls are HOME!!

We brought the girls home at the end of October!  They are doing really well and everything feels so natural!  Glory to God for bringing everything together in HIS time!

The last few weeks before we brought the girls home were probably the hardest few weeks of our lives.  I can honestly say that was the hardest thing I have ever done!  The emotional ups and downs were off the chart!  Greg and I tried to jump in front of God...hindsight is 20/20!  Once we were able to back up and just wait on His timing, everything came together!

We took Eli with us to pick up the girls!  He was such an incredible help and blessing!  I can't imagine the trip without him!  

We want to thank you all for your love and support over the last 4 years!  The journey was long and had many turns and twists!  We are beginning a new journey as a family of 9 now!  We will continue to covet your prayers as we all adjust to our new normal!  (I realize how old I am every night when I am exhausted from chasing a 2 year old!). 

Since we have wrapped up our adoption, we have chosen to continue with our Signs of Support in order to support a ministry that has become very special to us through this process.  Haiti Awake was our driver for our trips to Haiti.  They quickly became friends!  We have grown to love the children and the staff as family!  You can check out their ministry at www.haitiawake.org.  

We appreciate each one of you and look forward to see how God is going to work!

With love,

The Fink Family

You are to adopt 2 children from Haiti...What?! I had been having dreams/nightmares about adoption several times over a period of years.  I never really shared with Hubby my struggle.  We had talked about adoption being a part of our plan but, it would be in the future.  We really didn’t know what it would look like.  I honestly wasn't even sure if I could love a child that I had not birthed!   I can see how God was preparing us for this all along!  We had a cousin come live with us for about 9 weeks last year and I learned that I could love someone who I had not birthed...fiercely! After Hurricane Matthew hit Haiti, Hubby heard a story on the radio of the devastation and loss of lives.  He said he cried just listening.  As he drove into work listening, he felt God prompting him to adopt a child from Haiti.  By the time he got to work, he felt like God wanted him to adopt 2 children from Haiti! He came home and shared with me a...

Glory to God!!

All of the glory goes to God!  This morning I am not feeling well physically.  I have a nasty cold but, I am feeling so blessed!  Our fundraiser last night was so overwhelming!  We were blown away by the love and support shown to us by so many people. Let me back up...last night we had a silent auction and pancake supper fundraiser for our adoption expenses.  This was so far out of our comfort zone on SO many levels!  The idea of raising money is very uncomfortable.  The idea of raising money for ourselves magnifies that by about 100!!  Based on the sheer expense of international adoption, we knew we could not do move forward without some help.  We prayed about how best to do this and the silent auction/flapjack fundraiser was born! Now that we had a plan, we needed items for our auction.  Greg is a very talented woodworker (well he's talented at everything;)).  We began in February working on making items for the donation ourse...
