I Believe there are Angels Among Us...

Sooo... I was perusing the blogs on my very long list and came across this post by Lisa Bearnson...

"...Okay--so here's a gal who needs our support. Nadine is a lovely mother of
three boys who is an AVID scrapbooker and wonderful mom. On January 22nd, 2008, her youngest son, two-year-old Nate, tragically died in a freak accident. Despite this horrible lose and the overwhelming sadness it brought, Nadine has reached out to others to comfort them in their trials and hard times. One of my friends told me about a hard situation she was going through and how Nadine reached out to her. I was deeply touched. I have been in contact with Nadine and have been amazed how she and her husband have chosen to live life with love, forgiveness and kindness, rather than bitterness and hostility. It has been a privilege to get to know her and call her friend.Nadine loves homemade cards and handwritten sentiments. Let's shower her with cards and let her know that scrapbookers around the world are thinking of her and her family. The two-month anniversary of Nate's death will be March 22nd. Try to send your card before or around this date. Nadine doesn't know what we're doing but has given me permission to post her address:Nadine Fenchak, 7422 Brookwood Avenue, Baltimore MD 21236..."

Please take the time to send a card to Nadine... If you are strapped for time, as many of us are, and cannot create a card for her or if you are not a "card maker", please take the time to purchase a card while you're at the grocery store this weekend. Afterall, it is super quick and lots of fun to embellish a store bought card!

Thanks for taking the time to visit... Take care of you!
