For a 5 yr old, its always a exciting birthday. But, for Cora Lynne it won't be that way, she could be at risk of being transfered. No one to hold her, no presents, no cake, no balloons. In Honor of Cora Lynnes birthday month, I am challenging myself to blog about her for 31 days & to help find her forever family! Now what can you do to help? Starting tomorrow I ask that you share my blog and/or Cora Lynnes reeces rainbow page with 10 people & challenge your friends to do the same! In the facebook group I want to challenge all who are on facebook to like For the Love of Celine & Cora Lynne. If you want to donate something for a possible giveaway for BOTH GIRLS & 2 Reeces Rainbow families let me know! The Miller family is traveling soon & I would so love to bless them in this way as well as the "girls" & another family.
LETS SPREAD THE WORD TO FIND CORA LYNNES FOREVER FAMILY!! IT HAPPENED FOR DIANA, NOW LETS PRAY FOR CORA LYNNE TO FIND HERS!

Future Family Friday!
Today I have decided to focus on several families who I have followed & are praying for that are close to traveling,
First up is the Miller family adopting Quinton. Quinton is the one I have mentioned constantly since I was his prayer/christmas warrior & was the 1st child I fell for on Reeces Rainbow.
see this guy?
Is he not adorable? His mom & dad might be traveling in 6 weeks or less to meet him! I still have that gorgeous puzzle to fill up with names so if you donate to the Millers fsp page please let me know so I can place your name on this treasure he will have for years to come reminding him of all the people who brought him home.
Next up is the Mickschl family, adopting the adorable Lydiah! This family, is local to where I live. Not too Long ago they brought home John David ("Liam" as known on reeces rainbow) & while there fell in love with Lydiah so they decided to go back for her! Right now they are stuck waiting hoping they can travel to get her before that country shuts down for 3 months. Please pray for them! Check out their giveaway here-

& if you live in the Elk Grove, CA area they are doing a fundraiser at chickfila! check out their blog for more info!
Last but not least is this family, the devowes who are adopting Gage
This family also did the same as the Mickschl family. They adopted precious Madeline(beautiful girl with the blue dress & white stockings), then once home decided that Gage is meant to be apart of their family! Right now they are waiting on their SDA appointment which means they would travel soon! Please pray they will get that soon! If you can please consider donating to his fsp page here:

My Inspirations
I would like to say a few things about the people who continue to inspire me. I sure have plenty I could name but the 3 main people who have inspired me so much into advocating for Reeces Rainbow are the following:
My sister Sarah has been my main inspiration. She is 23 yrs old, & loves to dance! She continues to amaze me in everyway! We may have our struggles & fights but I still love her. If God had not blessed her with that extra chromosome I would not be the person I am today.
My Grandma, "Mamaw"
She is so generous to people & is why I love to help others myself. I love my Grandma so much & hope to share with my future children the lessons she has taught me.
My Parents-Again so kind & helping others. My Parents are such amazing people, trying to help others. Being paitent when it may not be easy to deal with certain people they are helping. I Love you Mom & Dad, thanks for being such great examples of showing Gods Love when it may not be easy! You continue to inspire me in many ways!

5/5/5 warrior for Celine!
From May 1 – July 31, 2011, our 5/5/5 Warrior Project will bring greater awareness and grant funds to all of our 5-year old children, to include those with Down syndrome and our Other Angels.
*********Instead of preparing for kindergarten like they should be, these little ones are hidden away and facing life-long suffering in adult mental institutions around the world.
Your donations and advocacy efforts truly can bring every one of these children HOME into loving forever families. They should never have to step foot into a mental institution. Money is the only thing standing in the way. They deserve friends, a family, and a future. Help us raise $5000 or more for each of our 5 year olds to celebrate our 5 year anniversary!
Funds raised during this special warrior project will be HELD for your child until January of 2012, without risk of it being reallocated to the older child pages. This is a great opportunity to help these kids and make sure your efforts go for them to find a family.
Please help me figure out ideas to fundraise! Celines grant is already at $4,310.50 but if I raised $5,000 thats $9,310.50 towards her finding her forever family!

Nothings Impossible with God!
Its hard to put into words quite what these kids go through. I am not a super good writer/blogger as I just never know what to say. I know people are reading from all over even though they may not comment on any given day. It encourages me to see that people do care about Celine & Cora Lynne. I will not give up the fight to find them families! Day after day I have seen various miracles that God has provided, Carrington going home, Evan Hook finally being with her forever family, & many more Reeces Rainbow kids finding their forever families! Will you join me in search of Celine & Cora Lynnes forever families?? They are AT RISK of being put in a adult mental institution possibly the rest of their days. I would hate to see any 4 or 5 yr old be put there for the rest of their lives living in a crib or room. PLEASE, I AM BEGGING YOU to help find their forever families. It would make me so HAPPY for them to find families! All of my personal favorite Reeces Rainbow kids have committed families coming for them, now where are their forever families?? I am praying for the families that God has planned for these girls. Please Lord, as you guide them to these girls show them the courage & strength that you can provide. Protect Celine & Cora Lynne from facing being transferred. Let me be a blessing & help to these girls & their future families through fundraising & prayer. I am starting this challenge early just cause I am ready for both of them to find their forever families! In Honor of Cora Lynnes 5th birthday in May, I will be posting every day, advocating, & possibly fundraising for her birthday starting May 1st. Today I want to start a challenge, I started a facebook group for the girls here http://www.facebook.com/?sk=lf#!/pages/For-the-love-of-Celine-Cora-Lynne/195132487189928
If your on facebook join the group & spread the word! My current goal is to get 100 likes! I wish I had a prize to giveaway at this time but I do not so if you can please spread the word, it does not cost a thing & it gets them closer to finding families! Facebook is a wonderful way for these kids to find their families! Also currently their are 18 followers on my blog so I challenge you to each invite 10 friends to look at my blog & follow if they would! If you are not following then why not follow lol? Like I said the more people who know about their blog & group the more likely of them finding families! Thanks so much!

Cora Lynne will turn 5 in May!
Since it does not say in her profile when her exact birthday date is, I am thinking of doing a challenge for her birthday month which is May. So anyone have any ideas? I was thinking of a advocating/pray for the whole month challenge & I would blog for 31 days in honor of her birthday? She will be 5 yrs old & with her profile picture not being that great I want her to find a family. I am praying neither of these girls have been or will be transfered. It happened for Diana from Reeces Rainbow so hoping this will bring awareness of Cora Lynne. PUSH-Pray until something happens!
