My friend, Julie (www.FindingJules.com), and her husband are in the process of adopting. This week, I would like to support their adoption here at WMH. By entering the giveaway below you can have up to 5 chances to win the two necklaces pictured above. Winners of this giveaway will be announced Sunday.
These would make great Valentine's gifts (wink, wink). You can also purchase other necklaces directly from Julie to support their adoption fundraising.

I asked Julie to share a little of their adoption journey with us...
We are eagerly and faithfully waiting for God to bring the child/children into our family that HE has planned before we even knew our desire.
At one time we thought we were finished after having 2 sons - but God gave us the desire for more. I really thought the “more” would come biologically first (with an open mind to possible adoption one day). God’s hand has been on us though and an unplanned event left us unable to have more children. That event was a surgery that initially was a cancer scare, but was completly life saving.
God quickly grew the adoption seed in our hearts. The process though has been one of sanctification, unending prayers, and even detours. Confusion and doubt is a normal part of this journey, I have reluctantly learned - but I am so thankful that God has this figured out. My faith has been strengthened beyond my plans.
We are now post home-study. Waiting and still praying.
This waiting room gives me joy and a sense of calm as I know - God has this!
Thank you for joining in prayer and support with us on our voyage that is sometimes crazy, but that’s norm for us and sometimes freakishly comforting. :)
Please, join me in praying for Julie and her family throughout their adoption process, and leave a comment of encouragement below or visit her website at www.findingjules.com.
