Introducing our daughter!

We are pleased to announce Finnley Grace Gaines! We will also keep her Chinese name as her second middle name but for privacy purposes, we are unable to share.

The new photos of her took our breath away! We are so happy to see her growing and thriving. She said she really wants a mama and baba and cannot wait for us to get there. We are so thankful to the McG family for visiting her and telling her about us. We are thankful to the SWI and caregivers for taking good care of her and we are thankful for the Half The Sky Foundation for their nurturing child development programs that she has benefited from.

Puzzle Fundraiser

We’ve been brainstorming to think of a way to raise funds AND honor our donors* and we think this puzzle fundraiser is just the thing.

Here’s how it works:
For $8, a person/family sponsors one piece of the 300 piece puzzle shown. We will write the name of the person/family on the back of each piece(s) purchased. After the puzzle is completed, we will frame the puzzle between two pieces of glass and hang it in our Finnley’s room. This will be a wonderful keepsake for her to see all of the people who were part of bringing her home. Just imagine her seeing ALL of those who wanted to help her come home!

You can purchase a puzzle piece(s) or donate to our adoption by:

• Click on the Donate button on the right sidebar and pay securely through PayPal
• Write a check or donate cash and hand deliver to myself or Steve (Checks can be made payable to us)
• Mail a check to us (email me at terri@thinkcausality.com for our address)
• For a tax deduction, donate at https://adopttogether.org/thegaines

Please help us spread the word about this fundraiser by sharing it on Facebook, email, Twitter, or your blog! With 300 pieces the puzzle has the potential to raise $2,400 towards our adoption expenses.

*If you have already donated to our adoption fund we will most definitely reserve pieces in your name. Please email me or comment below with the names for your piece(s).
