A family for Christmas giveaway

DETAILS OF "A FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY" ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST

In December 2010, I came across a blog that was hosting a "Family for Christmas Giveaway" for two little orphan girls. One of those little girls was Mia, before I even knew that this little girl was meant to be in our family, there were people praying for her and raising money for her, so when her family did find her, they would have some financial help in getting her out of the orphanage as quickly as possible.

That Christmas of 2010, we hadn't committed to this little girl yet but I spent that holiday season thinking about the picture that I had seen on the blog during that giveaway, the picture of a little girl that had brought me to tears, and sent me down a path I had never planned on.

 I pictured her as I sat and watched my other girls open their presents that Christmas morning,
  I watched my girls dance in their new dance room that year and all I could think about was how there was another little girl across the world that was supposed to be there dancing too. That Christmas season my heart was realizing that Mia was supposed to be part of our family. And the more I realized that was true, the deeper my heart ached to get her home.

Here we are 4 years later and its Christmas time again, and again my heart has realized that there is another child across the world who should be here with us.

 A little boy who needs the greatest gift of Christmas we could give; a little boy who needs a family.

Mia's miracle that began that Christmas season 4 years ago, is continuing now as we are preparing to give a little boy the gift of love and family this coming year.

The video below was made in 2011, Mia's first Christmas with a family. As the song says "of all that I could ask for, there's just one thing I need, All I really want for Christmas is a family."

That Christmas of 2011, was one to remember as we witnessed a child experience Christmas like she never had before, and it was not because she received dolls and toys for the first time , but because she finally had the love of a family to call her own.

Today is December 1, its a global day dedicated to giving called #givingtuesday, so what better day to kick off  "A Family for Christmas giveaway" to help bring a little boy out of an orphanage and into a family.
