Things Aren't as BAD as they Seem...

Well as you all know, things have not really been going that great for us this month. Rich getting laid off, getting my jewelry stolen, the holidays coming and still not a lot of job prospects...pretty stressful to say the least. Well today my faith in good people was renewed and this is why. I have a friend named Kellye She has a post on her blog that I want everyone to read (just click on her name and it will take you there).



I am pretty sure that Kellye has never met my Sister Amberly but yet she organized this great effort to get her the trike of her dreams!! My sister Amberly has "special needs" and she is the greatest sister. She has blessed our family in so many ways and she is always is doing something that makes everyone laugh (or be really embarrassed). She is just so simple and really doesn't ask for much. I know that she would be so "touched" to know that perfect strangers are willing to donate their hard earned money so that she can have something that she really wants!!

Thanks so much Kellye for reminding me that there are SO MANY good and caring people in the world (sorry I am getting a little emotional here) you have really made my day and I can't really explain to you how much this means to me!!

Like Kellye said on her blog, if we all donate $10 we can get this for her and make her so happy. It's just 10 bucks and all it will take is 40 people. I can't wait until we get it for her.
