What happens when a 2 year old wiggles...

and his Mama is not a professional Haircutter!

THIS!!!! At least he is only 2 and doesn't know that he is scalped! I did not even really plan to cut Noah's hair. I had been thinking about letting it grow out and just keeping it cut around ears and the back and front from getting to long but letting it all grow to that point so I can run my hand through it when I rock him! It was just starting to get back like it was before the BIG oops the last time. I am so not good at this! Uggh. Anyway, I had to cut Bobby's for work. Thankfully Bobby likes is scalped basically! I do that well! lol . So after Daddy was done Noah had a fit to have his done, he was smacking the chair, pointing at the clippers and signing please! So I gave in and did not plan to do much, well he decided to wiggle and things went a whole other way and once it happens in one spot we are commited to continue! lol Bobby thinks it looks great and says not to worry. I am thinking how much longer it will be till I can play with his hair. I am sure Bobby would say to me he is not a girl! lol

Just thought this was a cute shot of him showing the hair, or lack their off! lol



sooo cute!


Well, our I-600A arrived safe and sound at the new lockbox place in Texas. I have no clue how long it will take to get our fingerprint appointment and then our approval letter because it is all so new now having to do things this way. Other adoptive families have shared with me they are worried it will slow things down and I am praying against that.



Here is my signature confirmation! That you Lord for Fedex and tracking so I KNOW and don't have to worry until I hear something from them!


Before the haircut fiasco I had been planning to post these pictures from Saturday with some catchy post title like EEK! I can't find Baby Noah! Where is he? I think a combination of the fact we are growing like a weed and also have a few clothes now that look like a big boy Noah is looking so OLD to us. Bobby came home the other night and Noah was in a onsie Shirt and blue Jeans and he said "HE LOOKS 4! lol Not quite but it does seem like it! He is 29 pounds and wearing 24 months clothes now! He can still wear some 18 months clothes and even size 12 months pants but if it is a one peice especially it is 24 months now! Anway on to photos :)


He is helping me by vacuuming with his puppy vacuum! How I wish that thing worked!


Saturday we walked next door to our Neices 13th Birthday Party!


I thought this looked so cute him walking holdin Daddy's hand!!



Noah loves to walk outside! :) I so love my Sister in law's yard with the white picket fence :)



See! Doesn't he look like he is grown! This is a new thing wanting to sit in a regular chair! :)


Isn't that adorable! He is sitting there with his hands in front of him on the table watching Melissa with her cookie cake and candles! I was a bit worried he might try to grab for the candles but he just watched Aunt Michelle light them all!


I love this shot!!! :)

After eating and presents it was outside to play in the yard! Noah was the youngest by a few years and to boot the next oldest is quite a big guy for his age but Noah still had a blast! :)


I love this picture of him walking :) He looks like such a big boy! :) WHERE IS MY BABY PANDA BOY??


He loves slides! Look how good he is doing! :)



This turned out to be a neat shot of him landing at the bottom of the slide!



Is that not soo cute! :) Don't know why but I just thought it was adorable :)



and I love this one too, Usually I really love the smiles best but for some reason this one jumps out at me!



This was amazing to me! He sat on a big boy swing and he let Bobby push him a little and held on!!! Now he flips on the baby swings at the park so this so surprised me! :)


Such a big boy! My baby is growing fast!


I LOVE this shot of him on the swing! He is having such fun and smiling up a storm! ;)



This is Logan (Noah's cousin) and Noah just a swingin!


Hanging out in the house with the guys! :)

And I wanted to share something I made with some of the pictures we have been given of Jeremiah! : We have not gotten a new picture since early september so this mama is really really praying for an update SOON! I know we are blessed to be in a program where we get updates at all but when you are use to once a month or a little over when the day of the month you are use to comes and no picture or update its hard, I have now passed that twice! I am thankful to have all of you who read and comment and encourage us on in the journey. This blog in and of itself is such a miracle to me. It is a way for me to share with all of you who are praying, who have become our friends, and who have fallen in love with our boys right along with us, but it is also a way to share with our boys someday what we felt and thought and wrote while we waited. I don't know if Jeremiah will ever be able to understand the words I write here but we do believe Noah will be able to understand the ones we wrote in his journey and still do now. I feel like in alot of ways parts of these posts are letters to my sons, especially the parts I have written to them at the bottom but even the parts that I share with all of you.

Anyway what do yall think of our youngest son??

The Many Faces of Jeremiah Harold Sisemore!

div>

Jeremiah, my sweet Frogie Boy! Mama misses you so much, I know the day will come and you will read all these things and wonder how I can miss you before I have even met you in person, held you, touched you, but oh I so do. I ache to hold you, to smell you, to stroke your skin, to feel your hair and see is it rough or very soft, to KNOW if you are ok, if you are sick, sleeping, hungry, sad, lonely, or happy and laughing. To see one of those amazing smiles directed at ME and to be able to smile back at you! To get down on the floor with you and spend time together. I don't know how I will ever explain to you and your big brother how I could love you when I was paper pregnant and you were not physically in my body, but you both grew in my heart. God put that love for you there from the second he shared with us that he was giving us each of you! Right now this time seems so long and so hard, this working and waiting, but it is really just such a short time in eternity and I have to trust that God's timing is perfect and that God will get the glory for all the miracles that already have and are continueing to happen to bring you home! I love you frogie boy and we are coming soon. Until then catch my kisses in the wind!

I600A is on its way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God is good!

Woohooo! God is AMAZING! Yesterday we were able to purchase a Cashier's Check and Fedex off our I600A application to start the process to be approved to bring Jeremiah home! :) This includes the fee for our Biometric Fingerprint appointment that we will be sent for Bobby, Me, Celeste and my mother. Between the Camcorder Fundraiser, a $233 donation from a person the Lord led to give, Candy Sales, Babysitting and such we were able to raise this and $200 towards the $3000 we need to send Heartsent for the payment that is due. We have also been told that a dear friend has sold some items on Ebay for us and has sent a $350 check to heartsent in our name towards Jeremiah's Adoption :) Woohoo God. Also, a few ladies at a local school who are trying to help us are planning to have a booth for Jeremiah to sell Sonic Cards at a local Arts and Crafts Community Event one of the Churches is having. We are praying this will raise a good amount. Between that and our Sam's Candy Bar sales we have scheduled on the 15th, 21st, and 24th of this month we are praying to have above and beyond what is currently due to Heartsent! Then we can start focusing on the Orphanage Donation, travel fees, Jeremiah's Visa Fee, and our Post study fee! God is such a big God! I am so in awe of watching Him show off! :) Just a couple weeks ago we had to jump through hoops to get the $460 Heartsent needed to go forward then and that has been paid and this for our I600A as well and a couple hundred to spare! I can't wait to see how God continues to provide! Praise You Lord my Jehovah Jireh! :) It is amazing to me when the Lord instills a gift of giving in His people and they are obedient what a blessing it is on so many levels! Our Pastor said at Church the other day when we were testifying about what God has done, that when he prays to God for us he says to God, I don't understand these folks and how they can do this, I could not do all they are doing and God said to him I didn't ask you to I asked them too! WOW! That was huge for me! God told our Pastor that He has called us to Jeremiah and to special needs children! Confirmation big time! I mean I knew it but for some reason hearing it spoken from Pastor just was amazing! I already know what God has in store is so much bigger than us and our family we are buidling by adoption. I know the future is huge for the kingdom. You can't look upon the face of babies you are leaving behind in an orphanage and not be changed! Not everyone is called to bring an orphan home, but all are called to help care for the orphans. Not all are called for Special needs kids either. Thank You Father that you trust us and have called us to adopt and to care for orphans globally for life! I can't wait to see what God is gonna do next! :) Please join me in praying for God to show off in a HUGE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our adoption of Noah touched so many people along the journey, This is happening now with Jeremiah as well!

Though I would share some pics! Next time I think I am gonna take the camera into fedex with me and take a picture with the clerks! They get so excited each time I come in and ask all about the Journey! Some have been there through fedex's we sent for Noah when we were working on his adoption :)



Our Check sitting on top of the I-600A

I look at the amount~$990~ and I sing Praise! Wow! It took longer this time but it is FINALLY raised and off. The rest is coming. I KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woohooo for the I-600A!

Our FedEx slip! I save ALL of these! Such a great memory they become! :) Maybe I should make a collage of them all at the end and frame it! LOL

Just as a reminder of what it is all about! :)

Make a Smilebox postcard

November 3rd What a day! :)

November 3, 2007 was an amazing day! That was the day we first heard about and laid eyes on our son Noah WesLee Sisemore waiting in Taiwan for us! It was like an amazing whirlwind adventure just beginning! I will NEVER forget that day. I received an email that said we have been told you are interested in Special Needs Adoption and we have a little baby boy that no one wants, would you consider him! Boy howdy we will! We will take him I email back! Almost immediatly I get an email back saying let me send you information and pictures so you can make an informed decision. So they came and we saw his face and we KNEW even more that he was OUR NOAH! We sent back word that YES we want him, what do we do and so it began! We began researching things in the medical report, fundraising, paperwork and a 10 and half month long journey of a ride where God bridged the ocean and took us to our Noah! :)



Here is OUR Noah WesLee Sisemore Today!



November 3, 2009!






And here is the FIRST picture we ever saw that we saw November 3, 2007! The picture was actually over a month old. Noah was 6 months old when we first heard about him and 16 and a half months when he was placed in my shaking arms! :) THANK YOU JESUS for making my dreams come true! Thank you that I can TRUST You will work all things for good so that Jeremiah can come home SOON! :)





Today we had a playdate with our playgroup at Jumping Jupiter :) Here are some shots of Noah on this special day!






He did not seem to thrilled about the playdate for a good while!

Mommy is trying so hard to get him excited! NOT WORKING! lol

We are thinking about havin some fun! and watching the other kids!

Finally we decided we would try but ONLY if MAMA got in too! So I am laying in one of the bouncy houses getting pics :)

you can't really tell by that look but he was having fun! :)

he is so beautiful to me! :)

He would go down the big bouncy slide to get out and then CLIMB back in! His therapist would be so proud! :)

This would have been a GREAT shot if not so blurry from bouncing goin on!

Bounce, bounce, bounce!

again blurry but had to get shots of him bouncing with his buddy Drake and Mrs. Shannon!

Doesn't he look cute walkin around! :)

So fun mama! :)

This is a great action shot and NOT blurry! YAY. I dont know if you can tell but he is grinning big time :)

He was NOT cooperating and smiling for pics today!

This was close! :) he was bein so funny :)

I LOVE this shot! BIG GRIN! :)

Look at us climbing! Our pants came unsnapped! LOL I was so impressed the he climbed up there and went down the BIGGEST bouncy slide! One time he slipped once up there and went down HEAD FIRST and Me and a dad who was there took off running to the end of slide but there was a large soft bouncy platform at the bottom and he was grinning from ear to ear rolling on it! :) heehee

See how good his is doing climbing! :) I am so proud! :) I know you can't tell!

It was such a fun morning and then we went to lunch with his friend Drake and his mama! Came home to nap and he slept hard! :) He would not wake up for his first therapy! heehee We tried and tried. I may have to plan make up sessions on days other than Jumping Jupiter field trip day! lol

PLEASE keep our Camcorder for Jeremiah Fundraiser in prayer. The drawing is tomorow and some lucky winner will have that wonderful camcorder! :) Also if you or anyone you know wants coffee for themself or for Christmas then send them to our store, Java for Jeremiah! We also have tshirts, tote bags, hats, and scoops! And don't forget the target gift card giveaway goes till Thanksgiving! :) see the details here!

PLEASE keep Jeremiah in your prayers! We need God so show off in a BIG WAY! PLEASE storm heaven with us!

Jeremiah sweetie, we can't wait to hold you in our arms and bring you home sweet baby boy! Right now I would give anything for new pictures of you! :) I wonder how you are, what you are feeling, thinking, how much you can or can't see, what your smile looks like in person, if your little belly button is an innie or an outie, do you have Irish toes, what does your little neck smell like, and so much more. Pictures are all I have of you at this point but we love you so much! We are doing all we can to get there quickly. While you wait, catch my kisses in the wind sweet boy!

Hallelujah Day

I wanted to share some pictures with yall from Noah's Hallelujah Day Festivities :) I am missing Jeremiah alot today and have not gotten update pics in a while. I wanted to make this Fall Decoration to hang in my house and I did not have an October Picture of Jeremiah this year so I used the one of him last year at the end of October. And Noah's picture is this October. Wow, last year at this time Noah had only been home a little over a month! Anyway, thought I would share this with yall :) And I will edit it when I finally get pics of Jeremiah this October :) I will show you the new one when it gets here :) so what do you think??

What else would Noah be! :) Every time anyone asked him if he was Elmo he would point at his head! heehee

This was the Holy Ghost Weenie Roast at Church. They made a bonfire in the Gym. It was just like a real fire but instead of fire the wood had orange christmas lights through it :)

I think Noah was confused by everyone dressed funny :)

eatin his supper with his friends from his Sunday School Class!

just thought this was a cute shot of him lookin at me!

more of him with his class

Aren't they all so cute :)

This shot is PRICELESS to me! He is drinking out of a regular cup! The fact he wore more than made it to his tummy is beside the point! :) They gave him Sprite! He loved it!

Watchin all the kids

Noah and Millie :)

This candy bucket will have a life way beyond this week. Noah LOVES buckets. He has carried an easter bucket around and put toys in , carry across the room, take toys out and back and forth. The handle broke off last week. So I have a feeling Elmo has work to do now! :) heehee

Playing Games at Fall Fest at friends Church :)

Thought this shot of him getting up was cute :)

Can you tell he is grinning BIG! :)

He was so cute when they would let him get candy. From the beginning he would just take 1. Noone told him to do that, he just did it! Bobby and I thought that was so sweet. Then he played a game where you got points for how you did. He got 2 points so they told him to get 2 candies. From that game on at every place he would take 2! lol :)

He loved this little slide thing. He did this about a zillion and one times!

His therapist would be so proud at how he crawled through this tube! :) Work those arms little buddy! :)

Celeste the Zebra and Millie the convict :) It was cute. I joked on facebook that I was headed out with Elmo, a Zebra, and a convict, and it was a good thing I had State Police with me! heehee For those that don't know, Bobby works for State Police :)

Getting our face painted! They has the neatest thing. They were paint pencils. He actually let her do it. I was shocked :) She asked what he liked and we said a Ball. She misunderstood! heehee

course to him it was still a ball! lol :)

doing the cupcake walk! :) He won once and thought that was neat :)

Me and my Baby girl! :)

Millie with Daddy and Noah :)

me and my Binky Boo!

Playing ball! :) Daddy is SOOOO PROUD!

eating on Daddy's lap :)

lol, can you see Panda Boy is getting tired?

ok, thats a little better :) just about got all that food in :)

I just love shots of him drinkin out of his cup. I don't know why! :) look at the tired eyes!

Hugging Poppy today :) Poppy is a fireman! He gave us the heads up that the fire trucks would be at the shopping center up the road from our house and giving out candy to kids and they could climb on the "FIE TUCKS" heehee So of course I took Noah and FORGOT the camera! ugggh! He woudl not get in the trucks but boy did he love seeign them!!!!! :)

Hugging Nanny Beth but it was so quick it is over already before camera got it.

Eating triscuits on Nanny Beth's couch! :) so cute :)

My mom, Nannie Carol came home from rehab today :) She was in hospital and then rehab following her hip replacement. She is doing well and got to leave rehab early :) She says she feels better than before her surgery! She is safely sleeping as is Noah and the 4 kiddos we are babysitting tonight for funds for The Jeremiah Fund! :) Seems very peaceful in my house right now :)

I am praying hard for Jeremiah and searching for grant possibilities that may have funding. Praying for cosigners, my fundraisers, you name it! It seems so strange to me that money stands in the way of our son coming home to his family. I KNOW God can use this to teach me. I know that God can use this to touch people. I look at Noah sleeping so peacefully at HOME and I REMEMBER that God bridged the ocean to bring him home! My Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills, this money is NOTHING to Him! :) I feel so honored that He gave me Noah and now our Jeremiah! It is so sweet how Noah is so in love with Jeremiah and carries his picture around and kisses him on the computer :) I can't wait to experience raising these 2 angels together :)

Thanks all for praying :)

Jeremiah sweet frogie boy. I send you my kisses in the wind this night and some big bear hugs too! As I sit here unable to sleep as I think of you I wonder what you are doing, feeling, thinking, are you cold, hungry, needing to be held and rocked, just to feel the love of arms around you...I so long to do that for you baby boy. Hold on and I will be there as soon as I can!

Noah in the box and Pumpkin fun!

Thought that some Panda Boy Fans might like some pics of our Fall Fun yesterday! :) This was before the Tornadoes all starting coming one behind the other. I should have gotten pictures of us all piled up in the hall crying and praying that the tornadoes would pass us by but I was a bit to freaked out for that. Thank you Jesus that we are safe and suffered no damage or injury. Please be with those down the road who did suffer much damage and loss and thank you noone was killed! On to the fun pictures!!!!





Here we have a Noah in the box! heehee I have no clue WHY but this little guy LOVES to get in this box!!!!!!!!!!!!! heeheee He is about to get to big to do so! I want him weighed. He is definitly beginning to get thicker! and a bit of a tummy to playfully pinch!



Yesterday was pumpkin patch day! Thank Goodness the rain stopped long enough to go but it was quite a muddy day! Perfect for boys I guess. I did a good job being a mama to boys! :)

Look at that face! He LOVED the pumpkin patch! They were all out of these wood palats and I thought they would be more like a patch! But oh well. And it all went to missions :)

look at them run! Samuel that we keep some and Noah had a blast! :)

see how FAR Noah got from me! This was on zoom!

more shots of exploring boys :)

I so enjoyed this morning with Noah :) He is laughin up a storm here! I know its hard to see :)

run, run run! :)

aww my little man :)

this I think was when I said time to go.

I love that he points now! It is sooo cute! :)

he looks so big!

pickin out our mini pumpkin! See all the babies :)

he had a hard time deciding!

Standing at the car afterwards! :) They gave them each a bag of mini m and m's!

Our proof we got muddy! :) heehee

mommy too! my toes were brown :) heehee I have issues with finding shoes wide enough, I live in flip flops because I have trouble finding close toe slipons alot of times that are wide enough.

bye bye pumpkin patch!

Next we went to see Nanny at rehab! :) We had lunch at Nanny's :) The boys find the most interesting ways to entertain themselves there! heehee I worry about fingers!

aren's they cute :)

finally got our M and M's! :) YUMMMMM

he was laid out on the floor! don't ask me why! :)

Aren't they adorable?

Oh how I wish I had my frogie Boy home tonight as we go to the fall fest! The beginning of fall to me is the beginning of holidays and I so think what it will be like when Jeremiah is home too! :) I remember these holidays while waiting for Noah and they were hard then. I know the end will come but I so miss that little angel who I have never touched but oh boy has he touched me! Deep in my heart! I KNOW God is Able. I KNOW God is going to SHOW OFF in a BIG way! I KNOW that God's timing is perfect and God leads the people into our lives who are to help us along! I am so thankful that God is trusting me with Jeremiah to love and raise. To God be the glory! Jeremiah sweet angel, you hold on tight to the fingers of the Nannies until I have you in my arms and feel you grab my finger for the first time! Smile to them baby boy! They are weary and your amazing smile can make their day! Rest safe in their arms until I get there and as you sleep little one dream sweet dreams and catch my kisses in the wind!

close up of the latest picture from early September!

PLEASE REMEMBER to pray for me!

Happenings

Happy Fall All!!!!! I pray this season finds you all well! :) We are some busy beavers around here between our Panda Boy Noah being Mr. Active! :) Celeste in college, Church, Fundriasing left and right for Jeremiah , Playgroup activities, our Exchange student, my mom and her surgery and just living life! :) I thought I would share some pictures of some of the wonderful craziness of life! :) I also wanted to share where we are with Jeremiah's Adoption. FUNDRAISING as always is the majore word of our life. We are in crunch time at this point. We have been at this 6 months and we have to move quicker. Our paperwork is all being authenticated and all that and we have about 3 weeks to raise $3000 agency payment and $1030 to send in our USCIS and fingerprints. Having 4 Adults in the house is really making that fee HIGH! Anyway, PLEASE be in PRAYER for this as we do all we can and PRAY PRAY for God to show off in a big way! We did meet with the principal of a small private school yesterday about doing a Jeans for Jeremiah day where the kids pay $1 to wear jeans instead of their uniform. She has to take it before the board so it may or may not work, BUT it just so happens that the principal is herself an adoptive mother and very good friends with another adoptive mother! God was SOOOO in all this! Well, she calls this other lady at the school into the office because she herself is good at raising money. They are talking about ways to help us. They want to know total how much more we need and so we are like with travel and all bare minimum about $14,000. They are like, to you that is a big number, but its really not! WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! To me it might as well be a Million! Anyway, they are tossing ideas left and right, asking if they can share with other people. I told them they could brodcast on the news if they wanted. We NEED HELP! Anyway, prayerfully their "contacts" will be able to help like they think they can and we may have some good fundraisers coming with some folks who are willing to walk alongside and help us! I also got good news that a dear friend is selling some items on Ebay for us! What a blessing! It so blesses my heart that she is wanting to help :) I know that God is going to use this journey to touch so many lives, and I believe that Jeremiah will touch hearts and lives! What testimony it will be when he is home! God bridged the ocean to bring Noah home and we KNOW without GOD it would not have happend. I can hold onto that as we journey to Jeremiah! :) Please keep our fundraisers that are going in prayer. The camcorder fundraiser lasts till the 3rd I believe. Contact Amanda about that one :) We also have our Puzzle Fundraiser going which has not done well at all. That makes me sad because I really was looking forward to having the puzzle up in Jeremiah's room with people's names on the back :) Its only $2 per puzzle peice so I had really hoped it would do well. CLICK HERE to find out more about it! and also our Target GiftCard Giveaway is going on till Thanksgiving. CLICK HERE for more information about that one! We can use ALL the prayer we can get and if you can spread the word that would REALLY REALLY HELP! Please remember we have a Target Card Giveaway going for those who help spread the word about Jeremiah! That will be drawn for right before we actually travel, so each time you help spread the word between now and then you name will be entered. With facebook, myspace, email, sharing with friends, adding the button to all your pages there are so many ways to get the word out. And you never know where God may have a person who has the gift of giving! Thanks for caring yall! It helps alot to KNOW there are some who care, especially when receiving critque and ugly comments from some. Everybody may not agree with my fundraising to bring home Jeremiah, but I would move heaven and earth, STOMP on my pride, and do just about anything it took to help that baby boy come home to a family! Saturday we literally had someone who had money in hand to buy, ask what it was for, take a look at Jeremiah and WALK OFF. He may have cerebral palsy but that angel deserves a family to love him and a chance to have the best life he can! I feel sorry for anyone who can't understand that. Anyway, on to pictures now!




This was taken at our Sam's Club Candy Sale Saturday! Noah was helping Bobby! It is RARE that he will actually smile when we get the camera! I LOVE THIS SHOT!!!!!!

These pictures somehow are NOT in correct order so for that I am sorry.

Just thought this was a cute shot, we were at the Playgroups Cookie Decorating day today :)



For some reason Noah decided he had to plop down on the coffee table while watching Barney today! heehee It was cute so I grabbed the camera. The sun messed up the shots but if I had tried to get up and close them he would have got up and been no picture at all.

It justg got cuter and cuter :) heehee

ILOVE THIS :)

This is back at the playdate this morning. They were trying to get him to smile for a picture with me. UGGGH he would NOT cooperate :) heehee

This is after eating like the 3rd cookie and this one was chocolate :)

Priceless!

Mamaw sayin bye to Noah

This was on the way to a kiss :) heehee

These are from an afternoon at Bobby's oldest Sisters house. Nannie Beth is more than 10 years older than Bobby :) She and her husband (Poppy) are the grandparent roll in Noah's life and will be Jeremiah's!

Noah stole Poppy's heart. He gave Bobby this fire engine for Noah. Poppy had the fire engine for years and it does ALL KINDS of things! He wanted Noah to have it! Poppy is a FIRE MAN! He says when Noah is bigger he can ride on the Fire truck in the Christmas Parade with him!

Nannie Beth huggin Noah. Not a great shot.

Here is Noah reading Poppy's magazine on the couch :)

PLEASE pray for our newest fundraising venture. One of Noah's Therepist came up with an idea to try and get schools to hold Jeans Days. I thought OH we can call it JEANS FOR JEREMIAH! I LOVE IT! So we set off calling schools. Well, what sounds like a great idea to us not so much to others at least so far on the public school front, BUT I have a friend whose son attends a private school not far from here so we called them. Well, God was definitly in on that decision because the Principal is an adoptive mama herself! We have an appointment Tuesday morning to meet with her all about POSSIBLY doint a Jeans for Jeremiah Day! We meet with her and she goes to the school board and they have to agree to it. PLEASE keep in prayer this meeting and approval. I feel like if we can get this school on board it will help to get others! :) Then we could call and say such and such academy is helping us out with a Jeans for Jeremiah and we were hoping yall might like to help too or something like that! :) Here is the LOGO thingy I made , what do you think???



Please keep little Jeremiah in your prayers. I feel so bad that he sits in Taiwan waiting for us to get our acts together and come get him. We have to have about $3000 in about 3 or 4 weeks so that our case can go to court. PLEASE pray for favor and that we can raise the money quickly. We have a candy sale this saturday at Sam's Club. Please pray it will do above and beyond what we have ever done. Also we are going to talk to walmart about letting us have a day there. PRAYING they will. When we did a day there with our Church kids we raised over $1000 in one day! That was a few years ago before the economy was so bad and folks seemd to buy much more! Also please keep the Camcorder for Jeremiah fundraiser my friend Amanada is running for Jeremiah! And we are still running our $50 Target Gift Card Giveawy till Thanksgiving! That would sure be fun for someone as a Christmas gift!

If your kids go to school and you would be willing to ask your school to sponsor a Jeans for Jeremiah day please email me Tamijoysisemore@aol.com

Please continue as always to pray for Jeremiah and against seizures and that he will receive the BEST medical care possible while he waits. Please keep St. Lucy Center in your prayers as well. I know the Typhoon affected them in some ways and they have so many little ones, so many cases to be working on while lovin these angels till they come home! :) Taiwan as a whole I am sure could use prayer as well! Praying against anymore typhoons. Think they have had enough!

Thanks for caring and for the prayers!

Jeremiah sweetie, Hold on tight little man. Keep workin hard in your therapy and soon Jesus will bring us to get you! We can't wait to see you frogie boy! Until then, catch my kisses in the wind!
