Fatherless Friday

HOW CAN I PICK??

How can I sit here and pick which kids to put here on this Fatherless Friday??

There are so many with such great need...

This babe - This precious treasure - Marcia - She was transferred.  TRANSFERRED.

And she is not doing well.  At.All.  

$4161.00

She's falling apart from being moved from her baby house home into an institute.  I DON'T BLAME HER!!  I WOULD BE A MESS TOO... I WOULD HIT AND KICK AND PUNCH EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE IF THEY HAD RIPPED ME OUT OF THE ONLY HOME I KNEW AND TRANSFERRED ME.  

Look at this precious baby girl!!  How many of us have kids who can't stand the simplest of changes?  Who need reassurance over and over when things are a bit off.    KIDS LIKE STABILITY.  THEY LIKE THINGS TO BE THE SAME.  THEY DON'T LIKE CHANGE!  

Marcia is just a tiny little girl who has gone to pieces over a major change in her life and has NO ONE to reassure her. No Papa arms to give her safety and security.  No Mama kisses to make it all better.

She's a tiny little girl in desperate need of a family!

Please pray for Marcia.  Please someone go get her!!!  


And this sweet treasure...

$2190.60


Would someone please look past his lip that CAN BE FIXED and check out this little guy's beautiful eyes???  

Oh Shaun.... "The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

There is a fundraiser that is going on for Shaun.... YOU CAN WIN AN AMERICAN GIRL DOLL and some neat antique books...also... IF SHAUN'S GRANT FUND REACHES $3,000.00... A Cool Pick a Child Prize will be offered.  The winner will get to add $250.00 to the CHILD OF THEIR CHOICE!   So far few people have donated so your chances of winning are HUGE!! 

PLEASE DON'T PASS OVER SHAUN....


AND BRENT!!!!
$10,083.05

Okay - There is a family in his MENTAL INSTITUTE right now who is seeing Brent EVERY SINGLE DAY!!  He can walk.  He can laugh.  He is full of life and love.  He has good caretakers who LOVE HIM.  


HE CAN RIDE A BIKE!!!



OKAY - Upon closer inspection... Me thinks he needs some help!!  Little Brent feet are way too short to reach those peddles but HURRAH FOR BRENT!! 

Brent has over $10,000.00 in his grant account... GOOD GRIEF.. WHERE IN THE WORLD IS HIS FAMILY??


AND CHECK OUT VICTORIA!!! That same family is also seeing Victoria!!!
$2803.60

PLEASE IGNORE THE LOUSY HAIRCUTS!!!  

The little girl in the white sweater and lavender tights is OUR VICTORIA!


COME ON!!


LOOK AT HER JOY!!

AND THE LITTLE ONE IN THE BLUE SWEATER....


THAT'S ANOTHER PRECIOUS RR BABE...


LOOK AT HER PRECIOUS PRECIOUS SMILE!!


$1254.75


AND IGOR...

His grant account jumped considerably this past month.... $5000.00

He is in the SAME PLACE as Victoria and Natalie and Brent... ALL FOUR KIDS ARE THERE...

We don't have any new pictures of Igor but we think he has been seen!!  



And last but definitely NOT LEAST..



THIS IS SAWYER...
$305.20

He has a Prayer Warrior who is too old to adopt him but who desperately loves him.  She doesn't have a blog and doesn't have big pockets but she has offered up a lot of prayer and a lot of love for this one little guy.  She has asked me time and again to yell for her sweet boy.  

SAWYER REMINDS ME OF JONAH (Vitaly).

Will you help her yell? I don't think very many people have ever really noticed Sawyer.  He's been on RR for a while but rarely do I ever see him featured.  He's just the quiet boy sitting in the background.  

Will you join her voice and mine to get Sawyer noticed?  


THANK YOU!!

  4. Shaun!!!

    I absolutely fell in love with those eyes yesterday.

    I was a bit heavy-hearted because I wanted to advocate for him but I also didn't want to defocus too much from the ones I'd already committed to advocate for.

    Then, this morning, Jack was on MFFM! I'm taking it as a sign from God that I'm supposed to add Shaun into the newly opened space. :) I honestly don't know how you find the energy to advocate for as many as you do (but keep doing it!).

  7. Thank you for your shout out for Marcia. How I would love to adopt her. If it isn't possible for me, I will raise money to make it possible for someone else. Her fund is at $4K, watch it grow bigger next week. Please somebody, give Marcia a chance. She deserves a future.
