From Russia to America with love
Babies, from their arrivals and first pictures to their coos and kicks, are so different. Each family has memories exquisitely laced with the details that make them perfect. Soon a new arrival will be celebrated and we are so honored to be able to participate. Our friend Bethany Balsis, owner and the masterful creative source behind The Polkadot Platypus, is adopting a baby girl from Russia. This baby, like her soon-to-be-a-superstar daughter Payton, has Downs Syndrome.
The entire Balsis family is looking forward to bringing home a new sister. Amid all the planning for the multiple trips to Russia and preparing their home, they are working to raise money for the adoption.
The incredible women over at The Mom Crowd have spearheaded a mission to raise money for the newest Balsis through a raffle. Head over to The Mom Crowd and check it out. Prizes range from 2 UPPAbaby G-Light strollers, a Mia Moda Cielo stroller to a Claire Bella Moses basket, one of our Havanas and more. The tickets, on sale through Wednesday, September 24th, are just $5, but the boost you’ll provide will literally be priceless.
