I can't wait until you pull names! :) I sent quite a people your way from my blog. Don't have much use for the nursing cover but I have some friends that would love a cute one like that for their baby showers!! So...YAY!

I am so glad you've had so much success! :)

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I will be praying for you guys as you continue down this path! My husband and I brought our two daughters home at the end of September from Ethiopia, and while it has been difficult, it has also been more than amazing! I became a follower, so I can keep up with your journey!!

While it looks like the site hasn't been updated in some time, the program is very much continuing to support families in their efforts to adopt children. I definitely suggest you contact them through the site for more information on their available resources.

Thanks y'all! I really appreciate all the support and hope you all win some goodies :)

Danielle, I've added your 2 entries to the drawing.

Anonymous, thanks for the resource! I'll definitely check it out. I'm open for anything that will teach me about being a better adoptive mom.
