{Art available HERE}

I am blessed in my life to be surrounded with friends who have adopted. They have taught me so much and it is a joy to get to know their families. I originally created this art for my friend as a sort of “welcome home baby” gift for her son when they arrived from the Congo. I will always remember this photo shoot in the yard next to their apartment with big brother running around wild with my kiddos. So fun! Their bare feet intertwined is so sweet and tender. It has turned out to be one of my most popular adoption keepsakes.

 

Skip ahead several years now and the other night I am browsing Facebook & up pops a post showing the cover for Every Bitter Thing is Sweet. It stops me in my tracks. What a BEAUTIFUL cover {if only I had designed it! Ha!} One click led to another & I am totally engrossed in Sara Hagerty’s blog. This article she recently wrote especially resonated with my heart. I highly suggest you read it.

So, what do I decide to do, but write to her to tell her how much her writing has touched me, how we would totally be friends {as clearly we have a thing for honey laden covers}, and offer to give her some of my adoption themed art. {Hey, what do I have to lose?!}

 

Guess what?! She wrote me back & the art is on it’s way to her home! Yeah! I love how I can bless others in such small ways.

{SIDE NOTE:these are my reject covers for Craving Grace which you can purchase here …

I just came across these again … so fun to see the process!}

Today only I am offering the Ephesians 1 8×10 print HALF PRICE!

Just head on over to my Facebook page & leave a comment if you would like one & I will bill you.

 

Grace & Peace,

Julie
