A while back, I was notified that a wonderful organization devoted to helping children in Chinese orphanages, Love Without Boundaries, was compiling a book of stories, pictures, etc., to raise money for their projects. They were looking for submissions from adoptive families, which would have been fun, but I never had time to put together anything. Then a couple of weeks ago, I got another notice that the LWB folks were doing the final layout and needed about 30 more pictures. So, being the proud mother I am, I dressed the girls in matching outfits and dragged them outside. Between threats and cajoling, I finally got a decent shot with both girls looking at me and smiling *at the same time*. I emailed it off to the LWB contact, who responded saying they planned to use the picture in their book! The book should be available for order soon for delivery in November.
If you would like to contribute to a great cause and have a wonderful book for yourself, you can find out more about it from their website http://www.lovewithoutboundaries.com/LJ2About.php. Supposedly, they hope to have the ordering information up later this month and the books should be ready in November. For a preview, here's the picture of K and L that will be in the book.
