There are so many neat ways that friends and families can be apart of the adoption adventure, even if it doesn't physically mean bringing home a child yourself. Not everyone is called to do that, but if you've got the bug to be involved, let me share these wonderful links with you!! Its something I've wanted to do for a long time and I thought it was time to share :) .........
First, this is big and it might just be the day for you to help! The Maser family is apart of the Children's Hope Family just received their referral of a 9 1/2 month old baby boy!! From the sounds of it, this is one adorable little guy and his family longs to be able to sign on the dotted line that they accept his referral!! They are currently fundraising to complete this next step and they are so close!! Won't you consider helping this family out? They have 4 days left to say "yes"....
This is a funny story.... yesterday as I was blogging, I searched Google Images for "pink ethiopia". I was hoping to get an outline of Africa in pink to use on a post. Well, in the midst of doing do I found a brand spankin new blog called Kate's Craft Fair. I mean, they just opened up last week and I was the first one to place an order! I promise I wasn't stalking! Rachel and some of her friends from across the US are coming together with their skills and talents to make things like this for only $15!:
Check out Adoption Bug. They have some super cute stuff, like these shirts below...
This t-shirt is one of my favorites for guys and your money goes towards helping a family that is in the process of adopting from Ethiopia! Their blog can be found at Just Love Ethiopia. Father's day might just consist of one of these, from Little D of course..... ;)
Worthy of the Prize is created by a mom named Laura Kelly, and all I've got to say is that I LOVE her artsy ideas!! She is so talented and I have no idea how she does this with 3 kids and one more on the way from Ethiopia! Rock on momma! It's tough to single out my favorites, but here's a peek at her creativeness.... Oh that Little D will grow to know this in her heart...

The family at 2000 Tutus has such a neat story! We recently found out that Justin's cousin and his wife are going to be adopting from China! It makes me smile every time I think of them and the incredible journey they are embarking on! Well, at 2000 Tutus there's a family that has come up with a really cute way to spread the word! Aren't these adorable?!!
147 Million Orphans is pretty well known in the adoption world... There gear is moving and I love what they stand for!
Ordinary Hero was started by a mom of 6, yes SIX! They support children here in the US as well as around the globe. Her website has exploded, you've just got to check it out and see how God is using them!
Ever lose your keys in that big ol' purse of yours?? My Mom and I both got these a few months ago and we love the ease of finding our keys, not to mention how fun they are! Over at Our Tree of Hope is Kathleen's outlet to share about their courageous adoption journey and the neat little things she creates :) They are also doing a coffee fundraiser and there are TONS of blends to choose from!
Speaking of coffee, are you addicted? My handsome husband loves his morning cup to take along to work or on a lazy Saturday morning. We have ordered from Gobena before and we have never been disappointed!
Tomorrow is Friday and we've got family coming into town to stay at the Casa del Foster :) Love time spent with those dear to our hearts. Have a wonderful Thursday!
