Beautiful Red Thread Bracelet and A Book Give Away!

Sometimes, a waiting mother just “needs” a little something as she is dreaming of the day her child will be with her. 
Kiana (who was born in China) was given a cute little red thread bracelet when she came home and I decided to look for one for me to wear as I wait and pray for our precious son, Asher Eli.  It didn’t take long to find the perfect thing at AdoptShoppe.com - this sterling silver Red Thread Bracelet
I know that there are other waiting families, so I wanted to show you this pretty little thing. 


Also, I have an extra copy of one of my favorite books, Reckless Faith, Let Go And Be Led.  The author, Beth and her husband Todd Guckenberger established a ministry that helps orphans in Mexico. This book is her story about living with faith, with the certainty that God will show up, exactly where and exactly when He’s needed.  Beth calls it reckless faith-a willingness to trust even when you don’t understand.  I really did enjoy this book!!
I thought there might be someone out there who would like to have it, so I am doing a give away.  Leave a comment saying that you would like to enter the book give away and I will choose a name probably Thursday.

  5. I had that exact same bracelet while we were waiting for our Kylie. As it turns out the thread fell out in her birth month and then the little heart charm fell off while we were in China meeting her. I use the fact that I left my heart in China to explain why we keep going back...

    And I'd LOVE to read the book! I'm always looking for encouragement to follow that "reckless faith" that keeps pulling!
