I just can't seem to find the right words to get my point across tonight. Sorry it's just not happening. Over the past week I've seen/heard about so many terrible things happening to kids it's just not fair.
We have been incredibly lucky with our girlies, and I can only pray that we continue to be as fortunate as we have been. I feel that since we have been so fortunate it's our responsibility to pay it forward to help out people when and where we can.
Fast forward to tonight and we brought the girls out to Greenville HS to a Spaghetti dinner being put on by the Greenville Fire Department to benefit the family of a local 10 year old girl battling brain cancer. Dinner was absolutely delicious and we walked around a little bit , there was a fantastic bake sale and a load of baskets being auctioned off.
There were a good number of people there, and more coming in as we left. And a good number of the baskets/items being auctioned off were donated from local companies (and some not so local companies) It truly warms my heart to see how generous people can be when they are coming together for a common cause.
With all the nonsense that's going on in the world it's still awesome to see proof that nice people still exist.
I hope we can pass on a willingness to help others to our girls, leading by example :)
