12/20- Some more messages the moms wanted me to share:
--I am overwhelmed by the generousity of our community. Thanks to you and the other LIF moms, my son will never know that this Christmas was any different from the others to come.
--Hi !
I just wanted to thank you once again for organizing this special donation. It was so nice of you to take the time out to do this. You and all of the LIF ladies who contributed are amazing. Thank you all so much for giving us some cheer during the holiday season. All of the gifts were greatly appreciated and will be put to good use. God Bless all of you. Happy Holidays !!
UPDATED 12/17- I have messages from some of the moms that they wanted me to share with you...
--To All Those Who Helped Donate to My Kids This Holiday Season,
May God bless you and your families. We will never forget the kindness you have shared. THank you again.
With all our love and thanks,
The ******* Family
And from another mom:
--I am totally floored by the generosity of the LIF community. Thank you so much for everything. Thanks to them for opening their hearts to my children. I wish they could be their Christmas morning to see the smiles.
Thank you again.
I don't even know if there is enough thank yous to express just how grateful I really am.
***UPDATED 12/11/12***
Well, it's more or less a wrap for 2012! Whether the year my kids were the beneficiaries of your generosity or the years I have had the honor of organizing, the generosity of the people of LIF truly astounds me. Beginning on Thursday, I will start distributing the presents. 11 LIF children had their Christmas dreams come true. Babies got diapers and formula. Children have warm clothes, hats, boots, and coats. You guys rock.
I'm leaving the list up so people can check to see if their gifts were received. Also, I'm putting up a picture of my basement. It's actually very organized, although it looks crazy on the picture. I swear, I am very organized!! Look what you guys did, it's crazy!!
