How to Make a Grieving Mother Happy

Today I went out to get the mail. There were two cards, nothing that unusual for the season. I assumed they were Christmas cards. They were both from two very special "sisters" I grew up with. I opened them and was surprised to find, not Christmas cards, but "Thinking of You" cards. They each had beautiful handwritten messages, both with checks written out for me to buy fabric for Teeny Tears diapers in memory of my Tesslee and Vick. I cannot think of a better way to show compassion, love and support in mourning than to make such thoughtful donations to an organization that has my whole heart. If Tesslee was here, she would definitely be keeping me busy. Since she's not, I've made a point to busy myself clothing her angel friends that will soon be joining her and offering a keepsake for their families to treasure. It's a way I feel close to my angel babies. So, thank you dear friends for capturing how important these diapers are to me! It lifted my heart that you would find such a meaningful way to show that you care. I am positive that your donation will make a huge impact on the lives of many future angel families. And this makes me so happy.
