If there were only 43 hours in the day....

Sorry to have not posted sooner.

Sherrie Eldridge and I have been busy working on the most exciting launch for her newest book Forever Fingerprints and I promised to share it before....so here it is and I would love to see some of you guys involved helping us out by sharing the word and perhaps doing a reading yourself.

It's Great to Be Here

Also known as the Toolbox Press, we publish tools and resources for families touched by adoption.

My husband is just to the birthing stages of his book, which is a bit different because it's a Chinese man adopting a Chinese girl - in China. Hopefully will inspire the Chinese to love and keep their daughters.

You can check out the book at http://www.adoption-by-grace.com/girl_update.html

I've read I Don't Have Your Eyes, but haven't seen We See the Moon, I don't think. I'll check it out. Just signed up for the book-exchange, so let me know if you'd like a copy of Carried Safely Home.

Grace and peace,

Kristin

I thought I'd seen every adoption book on the planet, but yours are both new to me. Thanks for introducing yourself and EMK Press. I'd love to feature you sometime on my Exploring Adoption blog -- I'm always looking for ways to tout additional resources for adoptive families.
