So one of my families that I had adopted is a family of 6; 5 children ages 7-14 and a single mother who is terminally ill. These children will all be placed into the care of the state once the mother passes. It is so heartbreaking I can hardly stand to think about it!
In an effort to at least give the children something of their family to hold onto once this happens I recruited my family's photographer to donate her services and prints!! She is very excited to do this for the family, in fact "honored" was the word she used! I am just so pleased and blessed that I live in such a great town where people are so willing and generous with their donations, helpfulness and just plain good-heartedness.
Also, I must mention that my friend who took on this large family did so with the promise from a few of her friends that they would help with the cost...they backed out so my Dad stepped in!!! yeah Dad...he is always there to save the day!
I love my town, my family and my friends!
Merry Christmas!
