SNAIL MAIL

This is a chance to put snail mail into action. Many of you left comments of outrage at the recent tragedy in my town. Tragedy seems to trite of a word. THIS was a hideous act of a child predator, an animal. In most situations you want your rage to subside, in this case I want mine to remain and I want to think of ways I can be proactive in changing some very LAX laws. I received tons of emails. I even thought is was a post that might bring some controversy with it, but I had to post it. It didn't ....only the same passionate outrage as I had.

I am working on some of my own cards tonight and thought this might be a chance for you to bless a HURTING MOM and her family. I don't feel free to post her address, but if you would like to drop her a note, email me at annah99@aol.com and I will tell you how you can send it. The days ahead for her, after all the tributes are over,(the school had one today and there have been many over the past few days)are going to be a horrible new normal. Every picture, every home video she posts on her FB and tribute pages, breaks my heart again. This was such a loved and amazing little boy.
It's been 10 days now and I am sure the reality of the situation is just beginning to become REAL. I would love for her to know, that not only our community, but all over the nation that she is being prayed for. I don't know why some cases make it to the Fox and CNN prime time news. I have a feeling for every Elizabeth Smart (and what a beautiful example of a young lady) there are hundreds of other cases that we never hear about. Let's not be SILENT about this sick, evil beyond words, thing that is preying on and killing innocent children. Not one of us think it will ever be ours, but I would dare say that 10 days ago, Amy felt exactly the same way. Think about sending some love to a stranger.

EASTER WINNER AND MAD JACK

SINCE I was GIVING a BIG PRIZE TONIGHT for EASTER, and since I have two little guys spending the night that could DRAW the winner, I decided to do a short post. I will have EASTER pictures and a great story tomorrow. Today, two year old JACK, with a SUGAR HIGH from EASTER candy has worn me out. WE did have a wonderful day and had my entire family all together at church...It does not get better than that.

But tonight I lost a crown that I quickly realized was connected to a bridge, so it will be off to the dentist first thing TOMORROW.
THE WINNER OF THE $100 BOX OF GOODIES is KRISTI at JUST SIMPLY SOUTHERN! This is a new blog to me and I love it. Stop by and say hello and look at her great frames.
THIS WILL GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF HOW OUR EASTER LUNCH WENT. JACK WAS NOT A HAPPY CAMPER ABOUT ANYTHING.
Hope your Easter Day was SPECIAL!
