JOSIE MAE TURNS TWO

My little beauty turned two this summer.  She is so much more than I ever dreamed, she fills our lives with so much joy and spice.  Her giggle lights up the room.  Her brother is her best friend.  Her love for animals is fierce and her smile melts us from the inside out.  Can't imagine life without her!

 

One Year Later...

One year ago today I was preparing my home and heart for a little girl to enter our lives.  Boy have things changed since then and I am so so thankful...

**family of FIVE** {FUCCILLOS}

we are so excited to announce that we are EXPECTING next year!  the fuccillos will be a family of FIVE and we couldn't be happier!  God has called us to ADOPT a SON!  though the road is long and we have a lot ahead of us- we are well on our way!

through a series of several events over the last couple years, many prayers, and LOTS of thought and consideration, we have felt led by the Lord to pursue adoption from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.  

there is a little boy who we are specially pursuing but until we can officially call him OURS i won't be able to share much detail.  BUT i can tell you this... he is ADORABLE!  and has stollen our hearts!  stay tuned for more to come :).

we would sure love any prayers and encouragement as we travel this road.  we will of course keep you updated and there will be no shortage of pictures to document the journey :).

"A religion that is pure and stainless according to God the Father is this: to take care of orphans and widows who are suffering, and to keep oneself unstained by the world" James 1:27
