shop with purpose.

this print is available to offset adoption costs for the Boswell family.

Bridgette and i met through a mutual friend and their son is from the same

orphanage as Clayton. i just love them and am so excited how they've said

yes once again to this journey toward their precious little girl.

read some of their story & buy the print HERE.

i feel like i've met and known abi for years, but then remember sometimes that

we've never actually met.  she, her immediate family and extended family

are some of my very, very favorite people. their little guy is from uganda & one of
the cutest, most stylish little men i've seen. i adore him. abi is a super talented photographer

and is selling these beautiful, unique calendars to help with their second adoption.

it is a clipboard calendar.  12 photos printed as monthly sheets in 5 x 7.  a heavy

duty magnet is on the back and the wooden calendar planks are handcrafted in Colorado

using solid deadfall beetle-kill pine reclaimed from the forests there.

gorgeous!
you can get yours HERE.

she also has gorgeous fine art prints that help bring baby #2 home HERE.

i'm honored to introduce you to Nova.  her mom ashlee and i met through our mutual friend,

Steph, when Ashlee found out that she was expecting twin girls. shortly after that, they found

out that the girls had Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrom [TTTS].  Nova is the single survivor,

as her sister, Aurora, passed away in the womb.  Nova was born at 25 weeks weighing 

1 lb 13 oz.  Today she is 55 days and up to 3 lbs 4 oz!  she looks like the feistiest, sweetest

little fighter and she has captured my heart.   in addition to her extreme preemie status, she has profound hydrocephalus. 

someone is selling hair bows to help offset the family's costs for her medical care.

i love that you are surprised which bow you receive.  we got 2 small red ones

and they've become all the girls' favorites.  i pray for Super Nova each time i see them!

you can order bows HERE.

you can follow Nova's journey on FB HERE.

i love these blank notecards with images from Uganda on them.
the profits help A Child's Voice.   A Child’s Voice (ACV) is a grassroots
organization advocating for vulnerable children and families in Uganda. they use
social policy, education, and family empowerment to promote solutions
that strengthen vulnerable families and care for orphans without orphanages.
i love the heart of their mission and they are doing great things in this country
we've come to love so much.

you can find the notecards HERE
there are other goodies in that shop [gotcha day ornaments!] and
they have other uganda wares HERE.

bridger, age 9, is giving up his christmas presents for the third year in a row
to bring people that need it clean water!  i love this.  he is faithful and
committed to this mission.  if you'd like to give someone the gift of
clean water, HERE is bridger's campaign. 

i stumbled across this listing for pillowcases.  i love the sweet tags that are attached
and some of the cases are flannel--a great switch for the colder months!
there are many different colors and styles HERE.
the proceeds help their adoption for 2 children.

my time's up for now.  hope you can find some things
you love and bless others as you go!
