Caring

Caring is sharing as people use to say. I have experienced more care than I can ever imagine having parents who love & care for me no matter what. Its that same care that I show these girls, the reason the matching grant has been offered, & why someone has offered to do the Digital scrapbook fundraiser. Its Because we all care deeply for 2 little girls in a world so much different then ours & love them from far away that we will do just about anything for them. Cora Lynne was added late into the Angel Tree last year & I was her christmas warrior since Quinton found his family the day it started. So I am sad to say, this year I will be her christmas warrior yet again since she has yet to find her forever family but I am happy cause this brings the chance for me to fundraise for her & bring awareness to Reeces Rainbow. I already have a poster that my mom made for the girls back when we did the yard sales in june that I plan on bringing to the local Buddy Walk Reeces Rainbow table I will be leading. Its because I CARE & think their LIVES are important that I will be helping at the Buddy Walk. Want to know something I am thankful for? Its because I CARED that this Little boy went from this

to this, A boy who is so loving his new life!

Celine, you deserve that Love & Care. Its why so many care for you & Cora Lynne. Won't you please help so these girls can get all the care in the world? They are depending on us, please donate to the chipin & comment on the Giveaway post. Remember we only have $80 left to raise for Celine to get the matching grant! Please also remember the Digital Scrapbook Fundraiser going on. Also my friend Christina Scott has been SO SUPPORTIVE of all I do so please go check out her blog here

In Loving Memory of Dakota

Today, as am greatful for the freedom we have, I am sad for a little boy who never had that joy of what freedom is.

This is Dakota, & he has gone to be in the arms of Jesus. He Never experienced the love of a family or what freedom is. Because, I want Celine to have that same freedom & chance at a family its in loving memory that I dedicate this to Dakota. Please don't let Celine be the next Reeces Rainbow angel in Heaven, it would just break my heart. In honor of the freedom we do have TODAY ONLY ANY DONATIONS WILL GET DOUBLE ENTRIES! So please donate if you can & share away as this girls life deserves FREEDOM. Lets Bring this girl a forever family & not a life in a institution! She has waited far too long.

Exciting New Fundraiser for Celine!

Purchase digital scrapbooking software My Memories Suite 2 from http://www.mymemories.com/ and use code STMMMS69334 at checkout from September 12th until September 21st. When you use this code you will receive $10 off the software plus a coupon for $10 to use at the digital scrapbook store. And the best part is that Celine will receive $20 for every purchase made. The money will be put into Celine's Reece's Rainbow account on September 23rd and will be matched by Carlene's Daddy's company in November. So your purchase of this software will actually be $40 for her.

If you would like to see samples of what Carlene's mommy has done with the program you can visit her blog at http://operationorphannomore.blogspot.com/2011/08/and-winner-is.html.Katrina, who is adopting Carlene has also been so kind advocating through her blog about Celines Giveaway & donating a prize, she did this fundraiser for her own adoption & it was a success, just imagine what it could do if for that whole time slot someone purchased the software? Celine could have a family in no time! Plus with the funds from jbf & change campaign she could probably have at least close to $7,000 or more! Thanks Katrina for offering this up & for caring for "my daughter of my heart"! Don't forget the Giveaway & the matching grant offer!

True Freedom

Today, 10 years ago we thought the worse. We came together as a Nation Under God. We are blessed to have freedom & 9/11 is so true about that. Heroes tried to fight for our freedom but died. As we take this time to appreciate the freedom we have, these little girls don't have that same freedom.
So please pray, donate, & share the Giveaway to help Celine reach the matching grant, & the goal for Cora Lynne to be added!

For my Darling Celine,

Dear Celine, I justed wanted to let you know that so many of my friends love you & wish that you could be theirs but you can't be. I wanted you to know 2 of your biggest fans/supporters that have not only been sharing about you and cora lynne but also all the other kids on Reeces Rainbow. First of all, Christina who works in the Nursery at church (when I was helping in that class she & I became friends) she just adores kids, especially now that she has fallen in love with you & others on Reeces Rainbow. I think I have her hooked for life lol. She has been advocating consistently about your Giveaway on Facebook as well as my other friend. Rochelle, also has been hooked into sharing via Facebook & most reccently shared with her daughters homeschool co-op about Reeces Rainbow since they have decided to do that as their project. She also told me they might come to the local Buddy Walk, which I will be leading a table for Reeces Rainbow! I am very Greatful for both these friends in my life & I hope your future parents will be too. Rochelle also hosted the yard sale for you & Cora Lynne at her house which raised much needed funds! While I was at her House, I just happened to look at her refridgerator & guess whos face I saw? Yours. She even signed up to be your official prayer warrior, I am anyway without signing up but its so nice that you have 2 people strongly praying for you to find a family! Today, I sold more items at the jbf sale for you, not as much but as I said on my new message board God Always Provides! The Giveaway is still going on til October 1st & someone very kindly is going to match $100 for the next $100 given so you will be getting $200 instead! As always I love you baby girl & can't wait for you to find a family, Leah Ps. Although I hope a local family will stepup to adopt you I would be happy if another family adopts you. If your interested in either girls I will support you in any fundraising efforts!
