A May Update

We had another full but fun weekend. The Walk for Life went well on Saturday morning... I hadn't been to the zoo in over 20 years! I forgot just how cute giraffes are! :) **Thank you to everyone who pledged to support us! You'll receive something in the mail in a few weeks to fulfill your pledge.**

We finally found a changing table/dresser at a consignment shop this weekend, so now painting it is next on the project-list! I'm also still searching for some modern fabric to reupholster our cheap glider with! Check out this cool glider makeover - I'm hoping mine will turn out that well. I'm hoping to make some progress on both of these by the end of this weekend. With only 10 weeks left, it really feels like time is flying!

We've gotten lots of calls & emails about our condo, but no one has actually come to see it yet. We do have an appt. set for tomorrow, so hopefully they'll show up! We've worked our butts off to get it sparkling clean several times only to have people stand us up... frustrating for sure, but it's probably the cleanest we've ever lived! We're getting close to our cut-off time... but we're still hopeful. As much as we'd love to sell it though, the thought of moving before July is definitely a bit daunting! But God's in control so we're just along for the ride!

Walk for Life

Mike and I are participating this year in the "Walk For Life" which benefits the Crisis Pregnancy Center (CPC) of Tidewater. The CPC is a ministry that serves women who find themselves in seemingly hopeless situations. Many are considering abortions and the center provides counseling and facts as well as ultrasounds so that these women can see their babies and know that there are other options available to them. They also provide general love and support and help meet these women & babies' needs in a way that does not condemn, but offers life.

We will be walking at the Norfolk Zoo on Saturday, May 2nd and are asking you to help support this life-giving ministry with a pledge. The funds will go directly to provide ultrasounds, literature, diapers, clothing and more for women in need. It's amazing what a difference it makes when these women see an ultrasound and know that there is truly a life growing inside them. You don't have to give me money right now... you can just send me an email with your name, address and pledge amount and you will be sent an envelope to mail in your gift. **If anyone would like to join us at the Walk, just let me know!!

Thanks for your support!

Melissa, Mike & BabyW.
