Giveaway- My favorite adoption book!

If you look on the bar on the right side of my blog
you will see a list of my favorite adoption books.
...

............
I've had the hardest time finding books that
depict trans racial adoptions

so I tend to lean towards books who's main characters
are portrayed by animals..
which is also great because they can fit any realm of adoption stories
.....

............
When I came across "God Found Us You" by Lisa Tawn Bergren

I was hooked.
.......................... ..........................

..................... .....................
I love the simplicity of the story, yet you can feel
the love that this adoptive mother wolf has for her little wolf cub.
.........

........
I love that their fur are different colors. ........

.............
I love how mother wolf explains the love of his birth mother to her cub.

.................... I am not exaggerating when I tell you that
.......
I cry
.........
every time
...........
I read this book to Adam.
.............

And as I'm reading to him I am more aware of his sweet little spirit,
I hold him a little tighter and and kiss him a little bit longer
..............
because
.............
I realize what a gift he is to me.
........
.
...
When Cooper is old enough I can imagine the two of them curled up together in bed listening to this story and knowing how special they both are. ....

..........

Giveaway...SpacesForFaces.com!!

I love adoption related goodies!
I'm super excited to host this giveaway
from

One of the things that I think are essential for any hopeful adopting couple these days are great pass-along cards.

They are a fantastic way to spread the word that you are hoping to adopt to family, friends, church leaders, neighbors, coworkers and basically anyone else you can think of!

A pass-along card can have your family picture, names, contact info, links to blogs and on-line profiles and any other info you care to pass on.

It's generally a 2"x3.5" (business card size) with glossy printing and can be double sided.

Spacesforfaces has a fantastic website where you can get a custom pass-along card created AND printed just for you.

Spaces for Faces



Jill over at Spaces for faces created our adoption pass-along cards. I gave her the color scheme I was thinking of going with..blue and black (I wanted the card to be blue to match the color of Adam's shirt in our family picture) and told her I wanted something modern with circles...within a day she had several different great designs for me to choose from!! She had some great suggestions and also took everything I wanted into consideration and I was thrilled with how ours turned out! I ordered 1000 cards and within a week I had to order 500 more because we'd passed them all out!

We got so many compliments on our pass-along cards and had many of our friends, family and neighbors handing our cards out to women they knew who were considering placing their baby for adoption

Here is the front of our card:



And the back:

Giveaway from AdoptionBug.Com!!!

I'm so excited to host this giveaway
.
.
Have you seen their super cute adoption tees yet?
I love their products!


They have a wonderful message : "We hope our products give you the opportunity to show others how much you've been blessed by adoption and opens the door for positive conversations with others that may be considering adoption...and with those that simply don't get it at all.
We also hope that all our designs, particularly our children's items, reinforce to your kids how exceedingly special they are. Simply put, we think adoption rocks and we hope our products reflect that attitude!"

So not only do they have great adoption-themed apparel but they also help adopting couples in a BIG WAY by offering an adoption fundraiser program...here are just a few of the facts about the program:

* Families in the process of adopting can sell tshirts through adoptionbug.com to raise money for their adoption journey.

* 25-45% of the sales from a fundraiser store go directly to the adoptive family! (exact commissions vary by product)

* You can sell up to 6 designs total. You can choose from adoptionbugs tshirt designs or custom design your own!! (I love that!)

You can view the couples doing fundraiser programs right now and read the facts on adoptionbug.com

They also just introduced a line of adoption themed Christmas Ornaments (gotta get me one of these!) So check out their site to see all that they have to offer!


Now to the awesome giveaway!

This giveaway is open to ANYONE who's life has been touched by adoption!

One lucky winner will get to choose one of these super cute tee's from AdoptionBug.com .....so whether you are an adoptee, a birthmother, a hopeful adoptee, adopted, or have had adoption touch your life in anyway...you should enter!!

You can choose this one from size small all the way to 2XL

Or

This one... It also comes in sizes small through 2XL and if you prefer to not have the scripture printed on the back you can have it without.
