One Less Orphan Update:Quinton

Back in 2010, their was a little boy with the sad eyes that struck a special place in my heart. I became his Christmas warrior to help him reach his angel tree goal and/or find a family http://myblessedlifejourney.blogspot.com/2010/10/christmas-warrior-for-quinton.html

As you all know Quinton found a family rather quickly after I started advocating for him. http://myblessedlifejourney.blogspot.com/2010/11/quinton-has-found-his-forever-family.html But still I knew I would do whatever I could do to help his family. Little by Little with the support of awesome friends I know made the difference to him. What drew me to him was we shared a Birthday so naturally in 2011 when he was having his first Birthday (and last as an orphan!) I just had to include him in my Birthday party http://lifesbeautifulbutterflies.blogspot.com/2011/02/party-in-honor-of-quinton.html

My friends took home those jars & they gathered their change!

In March I did the Just Between Friends kids consignment sale that ended up raising $171 for Quinton. And in May/June did a yard sale for them & another family which did well.

Since coming home in July 2011 from Ukraine...

He is now a running, jumping, smiling,laughing,loving,mischief magnet! He loves to ride the four wheeler with his pawpaw,play trucks with his Daddy, & watch Disney Jr.
Without your support who knows where Quinton might have ended up & I certainly would have never gotten the chance to meet him twice!
