here's how.

okay...so, i've made my first vlog.
and this is real life, people.  i'd just gotten home from the March for Babies
for my friend, Beth's team James & Jake.
despite suddenly darting out of bed this morning with 20 minutes to make it there...
figuring out that all 5 kids would need to come with me...
our double stroller having flat tires once we got there....
it was such a great day. 
none of those things are what life--or this walk--are about.

it is about cherishing the time we have.
it is about honoring those precious babies with the way we choose 
to live our lives day in and day out. 
it was perfect & i hope the families that we walked in honor of feel peace & love.

so, a different start to my day than planned and 3 little girls that 
found!mom!doing!a!video!
so, they joined me.  =)

i wanted to give you more information on the Love for Anika
movement.  i've had a lot of questions about just how it will
work, so this video should answer that!
if you have other questions, please leave them in the comments.

i'm SO blessed by those of you jumping in and helping!
what a blessing this will be to her family.
please watch the video & consider linking up to be one of the 
Love for Anika party hosts!  
[if you don't have a blog or url to link to, just let me know & i'll link you up!]




my original call to action for Anika post is here.

Anika's Reece's Rainbow page where her party money is donated is here.

information of requirements to adopt from Anika's region of Russia here.

general information on the adoption process through Reece's Rainbow is here.

bless you all for helping...whether by having a party, praying,
or spreading the word anyway you can!

    That video was just too sweet. Also, I watched and just imagine your girls some day as mothers to their own orphans... what a legacy you've created within your own home.
