Help a friend



One of my very first blog friends was Alicia, who goes by the name of Yaya. I've read her blog for months now as we both started blogging around the same time and it's been a pretty interesting journey for her. Her and her hubby Josh have been trying to have a baby for a very long time now. She's has two miscarriages and has two angel babies as the result of them and although she is still trying to have a baby, she is turning to adoption.

Adoption is very near and dear to my heart and I'm thrilled for her. She and her husband are adopting through the foster care system and are hoping for a little girl. Adoption has proven to be an expensive task though. That's why I'm asking my wonderful blog readers to help them make their dream come true.

As an incentive to donate to their fund, Yaya is offering a chance to win a $40 gift card to TARGET, Mary Kay products, ORANGE (her fave color) trinkets, and Lindt Raspberry chocolates. Sounds great right? In order to win one of these fab prizes, all you need to do is donate $5.00 to her fund and your name will be entered to win. The drawing happens tomorrow though, so the raffle ends tonight.



Even if you don't donate, please feel free to check her out. Her blogging is wonderful!

I love Alicia and I hope they can make their dream of adoption come true.

I read SO many blgs of women who are trying to adopt and who have had problems with getting pregnant.

You couldn't be more right in saying that Alicia and Josh are so deserving of a baby all their own. Thank you for showing your love and support by writing this post. Wonderful of you.

On my way to check out Yaya's site now. :)

All I could donate to her were the buttons I made.
That's what I get for having no money, right?
But I love yaya/alicia!
I hope everything works out for her.
