Thank You Make-a-Wish



What a really cool day we had yesterday!  My 3 kids that visit the Children's Hospital for Neurofibromatosis were invited to the Make-a-Wish Christmas shop!  

It was wonderfully busy with children who have been granted a make-a-wish, or children that are being treated for cancer, tumors or other disorders.  It was both exciting and sad to see how many families are dealing with 'something'.

These families weren't hiding ....They were out enjoying the Holiday.  They were giving their children something to look forward to.  Giving them an opportunity to live and experience!

Each child there, got to decorate a bag, that would soon be filled with presents that they would personally pick out and wrap!

Thank you to Make-a-Wish of Colorado, for hosting such a wonderful program!  My children were delighted to come home and place the gifts under the Christmas tree.

Make-A-Wish Christmas Shop!


Today was awesome!  Make-a-wish of Colorado had a wonderful event where all the kids who  were granted a wish were invited to the Colorado Children's Hospital to shop for their family members.

It was great seeing all of the smiles, most especially Bailey's!  She decorated her bag, then headed for the presents.  I waited outside, while she shopped very thoughtfully  for everyone in the family.


There is nothing like the smile on a child's face.  
Smiles change attitudes and automatically make you feel better.
