Auction for a friend…

Oct 8, 2008

UPDATE… The auc­tion should now work in Inter­net Explorer. Please let me know if you have any trouble.

I write this post with a very heavy heart. Yes­ter­day, a very dear friend of mine in the scrap­book­ing com­mu­nity unex­pect­edly lost her hus­band. Hon­estly, when I think of her and her two young boys (ages 4 and 7) as hard as I try to hold back my tears they just seem to come any­way. One minute her sim­ple world is per­fect then the next… tragic. I feel so help­less and wish I was closer to help but geo­graph­i­cally this is not pos­si­ble. So I have decided to hold an auc­tion to raise a bit of money to help ease the finan­cial bur­den that has occurred.

I am giv­ing 100% of the money raised from my “Dream Ban­ner” auc­tion and remain­ing “Our Home” lay­out kits to my friend and her boys. I’m not sure how much this will raise but I fig­ure any and every bit I can raise will be of great help. I want her boys to dream big in life and always remem­ber even though their dad is no longer with them phys­i­cally he is still part of their fam­ily and will always be a part of their home.

If you want to leave a lit­tle dona­tion via pay­pal please click the but­ton below.

Remem­ber, any bit will help.

Make sure to hug your fam­ily and tell them you love them daily… as things really can and do change in an instant.
