My friend Jen is making The. Most. Adorable. Shirts. EVER. Check out her etsy shop: Lil Blu Birds. And if the shirts aren't cool enough on their own...then how about this: Jen is giving 100% of the proceeds from these Most Adorable Shirts for humanitarian aid in Ethiopia. Jen adopted her son from Ethiopia last year and is lucky enough to be going back in a month or so. While there she will be handing out fleece wraps to people on the street and buying cows & goats for the orphanages so the kids can have meat for a change. Warm clothes and food that she bought with the money made from her shirts.

It's really a no brainer. But just in case you aren't sure yet, let's break it down into pros and cons:
Pros of buying a shirt from Lil Blu Birds:
1-easy peasy Christmas shopping. Just buy one of Jen's shirts and viola! Cross people off your list.
2-easy peasy good karma warm fuzzy feelings. Just buy one of Jen's shirts and viola! You are helping feed orphans and keep homeless people warm at night.
3-easy peasy way to look hip and cool. Just buy one of Jen's shirts and then sit back while your friends and family bask in the fact that they have a one-of-a-kind shirt that helps people.
Cons of buying a shirt from Lil Blu Birds:

Hi Kat! I remember your record breaking wait well and have been a big fan of your story for some time (although I see now that you have resurfaced and that I have some catching up to do!). Thanks for your words of encouragement. I think something popped when we hit month eleven on the wait list last week but I am coming back down to earth and I KNOW that this will be worth the wait. Your story certainly is proof of that! xoxo, Heidi
