Baby Kitchen

We are excited to share this unique way of helping my sister and brother-in-law raise the remaining funds of their adoption fee.  This is a puzzle piece fundraiser.  There are a total of 252 pieces.  Each piece is $10.00.  Each puzzle piece you purchase will have your name written on the back.  Anonymous donors will have a heart put on the back.  When complete the puzzle will be framed and hung in the baby’s bedroom.  Such a wonderful reminder of all of those who prayed for and contributed financially towards this adoption.   Here is their story:

We are Andrew and Jaimi Kitchen. Andrew was diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation causing the early onset of colon cancer prior to us dating or getting married. This rare mutation posed a great risk of being passed along to any biological children we would have, so we made the extremely hard decision to not have biological children of our own. Adoption has been on both of our hearts for many years, and we felt led to grow our family in this way. While we are grateful Andrew is cancer free, he has struggled with some ongoing medical complications for the past 7 years. The many doctor appointments, tests, exams and surgeries has postponed us staring a family well beyond what we originally desired, and has cost us a great deal financially. We have seen God provide financially for us during many difficult times, and are expectant the full funding of this adoption will be raised. We are very excited to enter this new phase of life by adopting and starting a family of our own.  We are so grateful for the support of family and friends surrounding us, and truly understand what a blessing children are. This has been a desire of our hearts for years, and we are eager to enter into parenthood.
