Success!

Saturday was wonderful!!  We had a very good turnout and everyone said how much fun they had and hoped we'd do it again.  I hope we can!

We auctioned/raffled 32 prizes and held three 50/50 raffles.  The kids did facepaint, tattoos and friendship bracelets.  We think we had 200 people there?

Thanks to all for your support and participation!

Here are links to two articles done on us about PKS and the fundraiser.  They both turned out so well!

Simon had a sleep study on Sunday night.  He and I are both still sleepy today :)  We're hoping he has outgrown his apnea.  Not sure when we'll find out the results, but I hope soon!

 

Peace,
Gretchen

"Motherhood is about raising and celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, he just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be." ~The Water Giver~

A prayer

Lord,

Please help me remember that Your love is always greater than my disappointments and Your plans for my life are always better than my dreams.

Amen.
