I have been giving daily, yet time passes so quickly in the evening, that blogging seems to take the back seat.  However, today my give is BIG BIG BIG to all three of my daughters. My 11 year old is a Rainbow Girl and is part of the Grand Choir.  Today was Grand Family in Auburn, ME which is about an hour away.  I was not able to bring her, so I arranged a ride for her and she came back with smiles to share!  The reason I was unable to bring her was that my oldest has homecoming this evening…See More

Happy Birthday!

Today my youngest turned 7!!! We had a wonderful day of shopping with her birthday money which she only spent half of.  We dressed up and just had so much fun! We played boardgames!  Everyone in the family made it a wonderful day for her! With many prayers and Faith in God, I may have a place secured for my family to move in to--we will know by Sunday!!!See More

Timing is challenging with my 11 year old daughter's surgical recovery and I start teaching next week...I have til Sept. 30th.  Blessings have been letting people know so they may be able to provide leads (and quickly!) My gift--bringing in 2 bags of clothes to GoodWill so some lucky little girls can have "new" clothes for school.See More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I have always believed that there is more to life than what I am living. I have been blessed in so many ways all my life and I have discovered the link that the more I give the more I recieve even when I don't mean to! I have always said that if I could make a living and provide for my family through volunteering, I would! So this is why I give--to make someone else's day a little more pleasant and to remind me of all that I already have to be grateful for.
What I'd most like to receive:
Peace, contentment, knowing that I am fulfilling God's Will, to help as many families as my mentors have. Share the smiles and excitement that life is great and there are great people out there. Every person has a purpose and what a thrill it is to help someone find their purpose and passion.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
My mom had the book on her nightstand when I was visiting and I asked to read it adn send it back to her.
About me:
I am a wife, mom, daughter, sister and friend! I am a business developer helping people with their businesses all over New England and Guatamala. I have a great husband and 3 fantastic daughters--ages 6, 10, 13. We are an active vivacious family who like to work together helping people. I am an active supporter of special organizations especially the Shriners Hospitals and children's groups and homelessness. I have a a 100 dreams list that I when I take my eyes off myself and help enough others get their dreams that mine become a reality ! I love to travel and meet new people!

This morning I made oatmeal for my daughter.  She and I had a great time just sitting and chatting over breakfast. Prayed for my middle daughter who is in Bar Harbor with  a friend celebrating her birthday--first time away from mom since her surgery--she must be doing great as I have not heard from her yet! My husband and I took our youngest out to lunch.  Now it is time to add more boxes to the 17 I packed last night--anticipating a move…

I continue to pray and praise for my housing situation knowing that all will be well in time. I went into the classroom today to add final touches.  Many colleagues offered help in anyway they could.  I gladly accepted and they too care of my desk andlocker tags and are looking for a birthday chart for my classroom. I picked up about 20 boxes form a friend who snagged them form a store.  I am beginning to pack.  I am trying to stay as peaceful and calm as possible during this time of "being…
