Happy New Year

I have never been more happy to say goodbye to a year and get on with a new one. Good riddance 2009! Here's to a much better, healthy, and happy year.

There is something that has made me incredibly sad and I'm hoping I can get some of you to help. Some friends of ours, I mentioned them before, have lost their baby girl not even a month ago. They would like to hold a service for her and put her to rest properly, but due to the fact that she has been in the hospital for the last year they couldn't work because they needed to care for her and her older sister.
They are asking for help to pay for the memorial. This is a great family who we had the honor of meeting while in the hospital. Their hearts are broken and are in need. Please read Tootie's story and if you can, donate to her. I'm attaching her caringbridge page. Please be aware though not to click the donate button on the page. That will send donations to caringbridge to run the site. This is a good cause as well, but it won't go to the family. The best way is to send a check to the address at the bottom of the last journal entry. Thank you so much!
