tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma. tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me!

although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here.

from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touched by angels".

amazing.

so on "for tuesday", you will find all sorts of ways you can make a difference!! you can donate your time, your prayers, your support, your love, some money...you can buy things that people have placed linky's to their stores to donate to the tuesday whitt memorial fund.

anyway, my tribute is to the super fab for tuesday blog...who is showing us angels in every day life...and allowing me {and you} to be part of it!



so here's a little ringer for the week...where you can be a big part of it! i have decided that for every comment i get today, i will donate $1 to neuroblastoma research. so, i will donate a minimum of $50...and since i'm not a millionaire, and hubs is freaked out that 6,345,892 people will comment, i'll cap the donation at $250. so, spread the word and don't cheat and comment 25 times!! go tell some other peeps and get the word out about neurobalstoma and let's make a difference!!

and there's a perfectly sweet little baby named kayleigh freeman who has spent her whole little life in NICU and there's a great little way for you to get some fab stuff and to help the family out too...go on over there too!

I think that what you are doing is so touching. If more people put themselves out there to make a difference, the world would be a much brighter place. Especially when we are touched by angels.
Thank you.

Thank you for your generosity in offering to do this.
Our daughter Katie was originally diagnosed with neuroblastoma, but it was found later to be actually adrenocortical carcinoma. After 10 months of treatment, she passed away at the age of 12. Her 14th birthday would have been this Sunday.
We created an endowment for cancer research in her name, so I appreciate ALL that is contributed toward ANY research for a cure for cancer. Thanks again - you are setting a wonderful example and raising awareness. God bless you.

Hey there...here I am! Thanks for adding the Kayleigh link, and I just think these kids and their stories are absolutely awesome. Praise God that their stories are being told.

Hello all! I am commenting here, because obviously the people that have been here know the effects of cancer! I just received a call that an 8 year old named Jordan Leonard is facing a leukemia diagnosis. Please pray for this sweet boy and his mother, Meredith. We are believing that he will be healed and that there will be no cancer found in his body!!!! Thanks everyone!

I'm so impressed that you topped out. I'm just commenting to say I'm humbled by your generosity of spirit. What a wonderful thing to do. (Hope husband is okay that you reached more than 250. Maybe he's just impressed with how powerful you are?)

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.
