This is sooooo sad!!  A friend of mine posted this on FB, we'll be sending a card out Monday. Thanks for sharing it here as well!

Our cards are all set and ready to mail tomorrow. Thanks, Kimberly. This is so heart-wrenching. Here is an article on it: www.mlive.com/news/detroit/index.ssf/2009/11/thousands_send_early_christmas.html

The end of the article, "I'm going to heaven," Noah responds. "I'm going to be an angel." made me cry!!! Poor little boy. Hope he gets more cards than he could ever open. I can't even imagine having to go through that and watch your child die. Breaks my heart into a million pieces just at the thought!!! God be with them all!



God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
