Fulfilling Dreams



My dear friend Lisa posted a raffle for this beautiful quilt. The proceeds will provide the funds for her daughter Honeybee to travel with me to Ethiopia to pick up Jubilee. Honeybee also wants to visit her grandmother who is from the same town that our son, Nes is from. We will get to visit his mother, her best friend, whose son we also see regularly, as well as Honeybee's family. I wish I had a picture of Honeybee's face when she asks me if she can come to Ethiopia with me. I tell her every time that we are still praying that she can come. We sat down one morning and prayed that God would provide the ticket for her. That evening Lisa called and told me that another friend had donated this quilt for her to raffle. If you would like to participate in this raffle to help Honeybee, and to win this amazing quilt you can donate at Lisa's blog. $5 will get you one chance and $20 will get you five chances. It is a very worthy cause, and the odds of winning are pretty good, much better than the lottery.
