Look what I found for the foster mother
Hi All,

Many of you know that I was looking for something special for my foster mother. She is a friend of the birthmother (does not normally foster) and has cared for Eli for the past 2yrs of his life. I did not feel lotion, chocolate, or something like that would do. I was so happy to find this bracelet at the mall yesterday and I think it turned out great so I wanted to show you. The pictures are alittle blurry but you will get the idea.

What do you think?

Anne

That is very pretty. I purchased somthing similar for Arely's foster mom- It is a sterling silver initial necklace in a sterling silver heart box. I had the box engraved w/ a little verse- I too am trying to find really special gifts to give to her.

Oh, that's just perfect! I'm going to copy your idea -- I, too, thought lotions and such just weren't quite enough. How long did it take to get it done?
