would you pray with us?

Nothing super urgent, but it is super important.
While we were still in the "hmmm... maybe we should start thinking about adopting again" stage, we made the decision that Chris would not go to China this time at all. That meant we needed a friend to travel with me. It needs to be an adult. We actually decided that two friends - kinda "tag teaming" might be best.
I have one friend already who said "yes", but we are having a hard time finding someone else. Now before you go volunteering :) please know that we have people in mind already.
The thing is - if two people have already said "no" - we are wondering if this isn't the best plan. Maybe Chris is supposed to go for half the time? Maybe for the whole trip? Maybe we all go?
So here is my two part prayer request...
Would you pray that God will show us HIS plan?
And
IF his plan involved everyone going (crazy as it seems!), that he would provide abundantly for the overwhelming financial cost?

(Now might be a great time to mention that we are going to be fundraising for this adoption in the near future. We are planning a blog auction to take place during the Olympics and maybe a handmade craft of some sort for sale.)

Thanks for praying. We'll keep you updated.
And
still no PA for Abraham. It will come.
:)

Praying for you to know exactly what God's will is for your trip to China. I am lovin' the pictures of your house and yard. Can't wait to see it in person one day!
