Close to my heart


This is my Mother’s Day gift, chosen by me πŸ˜‰ and I love it! It’s made by Tracy at JunkPosse, her shop is at Etsy.com. Someone kindly pointed me in her direction a few months ago and it wasn’t long after I looked at her beautiful custom made jewelry that I decided what I was going to be asking for on Mother’s Day! The first tag has all my girls names on it. The second has my boys and the last tag has “Angel From Above” written in Chinese characters. Now I can wear something that reminds me of ALL my babies close to my heart.

In addition to her cool jewelry, Tracy has a huge heart for adoption. She is an adoptive mama herself and has decided to contribute a portion of her China adoptive jewelry to The Bilby Bunch’s fundraising efforts. How cool is that?

Thanks, Tracy! I love it πŸ™‚

    Beautiful! I had a pendant made when we returned from China and I never take it off. (Well, other than to shower and to sleep.) I have other nice necklaces, but I can’t seem to take this one off. It is just too special to me.

    Have you ever surfed by Julie P’s designs? http://juliepdesigns.com/

    Got one of her pendants this year for Valentine’s day – she also does names and custom pieces. Love them too!

    I love your new necklace. πŸ™‚ I have one that I got for Christmas that has each of the kids names stamped on it and I wear it almost every day. It is definitely a fave!

    I Love it!! Tracy did a custom piece for me in Feb. that represents our kiddos…one from China, 3 US adoptions, one home-grown. She is absolutely amazing. She’s working on some map charms for a fingerprint bracelet I have.

    Tracy you are the BEST!!!!

    After reading through your blog last night I realized that your daughter Isabelle is from the same province as my daughter Isabella. This little fact made my heart smile!!!

    May I add you to my blog roll? I look forward to keeping up with you and your beautiful family.

    Hugs,

    I love Junk Posse and I want a necklace too someday when I can decide on which one! You have a BEAUtiful Family! Please stop by my blog sometime as I am hoping to connect with other families who have been where we are going in this adoption process.

    Blessings!

    What an amazing necklace! I am not even sure how I got to your blog, but I was shocked when I saw that you have a son named Asher. It isn’t a terribly popular name! We had a baby in February and named him Asher.
