Big news for our family! After much prayer we have now sent in a letter of intent for a little 6 year old girl from Colombia. She is precious and we cannot wait to bring her home! This is not a done deal, we have to wait for the Colombian Department of Children's Services to accept our letter of intent. We are praying they will see we are the family for her. Please pray for our fundraising efforts so we can bring her home soon. If you feel lead to help us with this you can make a tax deductible donation to Lifesongfororphans.org. (This is like a GoFundme page for adoption, except 100% of the donations go to our adoption cost.)
Just select "Give to an Adoptive Family."
Complete the online form and fill in the "Family Account Number- #5450"
and "Family Name- Wood" fields to assure it goes to the correct account.
We greatly appreciate your help bringing her home.
Can't wait to show you the face of our newest angel!
We went straight to Target and bought her an outfit! Can't wait to see her wearing it!
We had a celebration of life for my precious grandfather, Papa. He died at the age of 97, after living his life to the fullest. He was the happiest man alive and lived every day of his 97 years making people happy too. He lived about 12 of his years in an orphanage and loved his years there. Although he was blessed by his time in Oxford Orphanage, I know he would be so happy to know that our little angel will not have to spend her life in an orphanage but will get to spend it with a family. I wish he was going to be here when she arrives.
This was my grandfather's girlfriend, Nell. She is 97 as well.

This was a very happy day and a sad one too!
Happy for Jerod as he starts a great chapter in his life at Liberty University. It was a sad one for the family as we had to say good-bye to him for an unknown amount of time.
Gonna miss my family!
We said good-bye to family.
This was my family.
I wasn't with Greg's much because
I had to return for my grandfather's funeral.
Ready to head back to Mexico with just a few bags!
Please pray for us as we go through many transitions over then next few months!
Blessings!
