Yes, I was doing some major cheesing, but I was just so darn happy to see a smile on her face!
• That moment when you are so sad at the loss of someone you have never even met...Kidd Kraddick
I have listened to Kidd for years, all throughout high school, into my 20s. I am at such a loss of words for how sad and emotional it is. It's amazing to hear the outpouring of messages on his FaceBook page, and the Kidd Kraddick website. He has touched a lot of lives.
• This Christmas I want to "foster" a family if you will. I would like to buy toys for their children, maybe buy mom and dad some much needed items (i.e. toiletries, shaving cream). Is there a website or charity that anyone is familiar with for me to do this?
• I have realized this past weekend, that my obsession with pink is ridiculous and I may need to seek help for it. I went to Victoria's Secret and bought two new shirts, both pink. Ordered a clutch online, yep, you guessed it pink...it has to stop.
• My aunt who lives in Florida, is coming up this weekend to visit with us and see her sister, my mom. I am beyond excited as I haven't seen her in months.
• My little family is going out tonight with another little family for dinner. It's these little things that keep me sane, speaking to other adults who aren't my husband. It grounds me, I think everyone needs this from time to time.

You might check with your local school to find a family in need. When I was teaching, our guidance counselors would always put together an "Angel Tree" with families in our school that needed help. They had to apply for it, and our counselors knew the families well, so they made sure the families really needed it.
