Go Juri!!!!

Boy, born November 2007
Cerebral palsy, flail legs
Juri sits and crawls, but does not walk without support. The boy is very good, sociable and cheerful. He is very positive and bright! Can eat and dress without help. Juri is a favorite in the group, likes to play. He is very friendly and doesn’t create conflicts.  Also, he is very cute!

$1045.00 is available towards the cost of my adoption!

Why am I fist pumping with the Situation?  (Yes this is the second time the Situation has been featured on my blog I shall admit)  Did you see that up there?  No, missed it?  Go back up and look again!  That's right, so far Juri has received $1045.00 in donations towards his adoption costs!  Why am I fist pumping?  Well in a matter of a week Juri's fund went from $45.00 to $1045.00 so $1000 towards his adoption has been raised due to the graciousness of someone or someones!  This is exactly what Brian and I have been praying for because the higher his grant fund, the higher his chances of finding his family!!!!

 

So join me please in a good fist pump (tutorial below for those unaware of proper fist pump technique....you're welcome!)

 

So in more realistic terms what does that mean?  Well with his adoption from start to finish costing about $25,000 in all (includes home study, background checks, visas, travel via plane and likely train in country and a driver to and from the orphanage, facilitator fee's and translator, lodging, food since you have to eat when you are there, etc. ) with his grant of $1045.00 that means he is a bit over 1/25th of the way there to being fully funded for his ransom! 

 

1 of the 25 brick walls has been smashed down....only 24 to go (makes it sound much more do-able huh!)....oh and he still needs a family to step up and make him their son!
