Dear Friends and Family,

As the one year anniversary of Oscar and Finnegan's births / deaths approaches, I feel the desire to do something special in their honor.  I like the idea of collecting something specific, something I can put my hands on or something I can imagine others putting their hands on.  I also like the idea of doing something a little different to honor Ozzy and Finn each November.  For 2011, I'd like to collect copies of three different books.

I am working with The United Methodist Children's Home, a licensed foster care / adoption agency, and they would like to give three beautifully written, beautifully illustrated books to every foster child who comes into care:  Kids Need to Be Safe, by Julie Nelson; Families Change, also by Julie Nelson; and Maybe Days, by Jennifer Wilgocki and Marcia Kahn Wright.  Each book would be a great comfort to foster children as well as a wonderful resource for foster parents.

If you feel so moved, you may order a book by clicking on the link below.  You can ship it to me and I will bring it to UMCH myself, or you can ship it directly to UMCH.  (If you click on the link below, you will see the UMCH address listed under my profile.)

Thank you for your love and support!
