It is our anniversary!!!!! We need presents!!!!!!

EDITED TO ADD -

THE GOAL WAS MET ...
 
THEN IT WAS REVISED TO DOUBLE

AND THAT GOAL WAS SURPASSED!

THANK YOU FRIENDS!



Will you help us celebrate our anniversary??? 

Will you buy us a present?

We have been married 22 years!!!!!

Copper is the "present" for a 22 year anniversary. 

Would you give us some copper?  1200 pieces of copper?  1200 pennies ... it sounds like a lot.

But it is just $12.00.

We need diapers .... no, we are not that old, but we are getting there!!!

Actually, my babies need diapers.

No, not the babies in my house.

The babies in my heart. The babies with special needs that don't get out of their cribs often.

The ones on the other side of the world. The ones laying in perpetual wetness.

The ones that live in the orphanage that Seth, Sammy and Gloria lived in.


If I told you I needed $12 for my babies because they had a rash and I did not have enough diapers to change them often   ......   Would you GIVE me $12.00?  I am pretty sure most of you would.


My friend is adopting a little girl from there. and  will be returning shortly and would like to bless the children with diapers. 

I'd love to blow them away. 

I'd love for her to have to make multiple trips to deliver all the diapers. 

I'd love for the orphanage workers to know these children are worth diapers ...

This is another chance for us to show Jesus. 

To show the nannies and all of those at the orphanage, that these children matter, that they are valued, that they are loved by a bunch of radical Americans that love like Jesus does.

Friends, I am asking you to give like it was Noah or Gloria or Samuel or Seth laying in the same diaper for a 12 hour shift.  Please!

We donated the money we were going to use to pay for an overnight trip to celebrate and have a small break from life while Aunt Sissy watches the kids.  Instead, we bought diapers.  I am not asking you to send your vacation money, just your Starbuck's or McDonald's money. 

Please friends!

You can donate through the chip-in on Lyla's mommy's blog  The chipin has ended - thank you!

Make sure to send a note that you are celebrating with us by giving diapers to orphans.

I honestly can't think of a better present!
