- Mulder Family Plans -

Life has been full of laughter, tears, excitement & anxiousness around the Mulder household lately...Over the past few months we have been faced with the news that we are unable to have our own children due to medical reasons & God has laid on our hearts to pursue adoption. Throughout our dating years we have always talked about adoption & how we would love to give a child a wonderful Christian home & family that they might not otherwise have. This being said we are now beginning the process of Domestic Infant Adoption. Right now this seems like an overwhelming task that lay before us but we know through prayer, family support & fellow adoptive families support this will be a journey that we will never forgot and be better for it in the end...The adoption agency we have chosen to use is Bethany Christian Services that has a local office in south Bellingham. To the side of our blog you will see the adoption agency logo, if you click it you will be automatically linked to the Bethany Christian Services web-site where you will find more information. Directly below that you will also see "Our Adoption Funds" thermometer. This is a tool for us along with others to raise funds towards our adoption. However we know if God has placed this in our life he will always supply. We are still researching ways we can fundraise towards our ultimate goal to bring our baby home. More to come on that later...we are using this blog now as a tool for fundraising & also to inform people of the adoption process. Please continue to check back to see new updates.
"All Children are blessing, they are precious gifts from Heaven. They are each special in God's eyes no matter how they are given. For though most Children have the bond of Flesh and Blood to start, so many come a different way, they are born within the heart. So know adoptive parents, that your child was meant for you. God searched throughout the whole wide world and no one else would do. He saw within you both a strong reflection of his love, so now he gives your child to you, a Gift from Heaven above. Like all children they will need so much throughout the years , and many days you'll find will have both laughter and some tears. You'll see your life rewarded with a joy you'll know is true. Just remember, that the child you have is also God's child too. Yes, dear parents your were chosen for your child right from the start. It was you that they were meant for - They were born within your heart. "
