Cards...Cards...Everywhere

Charlotte and Julia have taken on a huge task this year...they are doing a "Year of Service" and have chosen to send cards, crafts, and gifts to sick children and their siblings. So far they have 17 kids on the list. They make cards or crafts for 1 hour after school every day. They are putting their hearts into this project and we are SO very proud of them. Today they delivered their first package to a friend who has been struggling with allergies. He and his sister loved their special handmade cards and the glow sticks that the girls included in the package. I know that it makes our girls feel more empowered to help others...especially other kids. It also makes them aware of the daily struggles of other children and their siblings. If you have anyone you would like us to add to the list please get in touch with me! Also if you have any 8x10 or 5x7 envelopes, crafts, or art supplies you'd like to donate to their cause please let me know.

Also I wanted to share that we have started a "Thinking of you" wall or Delaney. It's behind her medical changing station where we do diaper changes and gtube care and feed hook ups and medicine. We started with pictures we took in Virginia of her, her sisters, and her best friend. We added things as she received them in the mail. It is amazing how quickly she has added to her wall. She LOVES all the pretty cards and small gifts. Gosh...she carries around the Bear that Amara sent her. She actually kissed the card she got from her Cole's Foundation Sponsor sent her. She wears the reuseable gtube pads Nicole sent her. She sits on, lays on, and carries around hr Bearghan that Heartmade Blessings sent her. I know if she could talk she would say THANK YOU!
