Tune in! (and feel free to submit ideas by emailing love 2 learn 2 day @ gmail dot com)Question in Comments: What if I want something from Amazon that is NOT on the list?
Answer: If you click on any of the links below or enter through the Amazon link on the right side of my home page, everything you do is credited toward Grace and Hope even if you don't order what I recommend. As long as you enter through this site, everything you do in that transaction is covered. All toward Grace and Hope! I'm hoping to earn them enough to put one additional child in foster care for one year!
