I got a second letter in the mail this weekend from Primary Children's Hospital thanking us once again for donating the stuffed animals from Build-A-Bear. The first letter, like the one I received last year, was the standard form letter thanking us for the donation, but this letter was a more personal letter from the director of donations. It really highlighted how excited the kids were and how the kids can feel left out or alone when they are in the hospital during the holiday season.
After reading the letter a few times it really made me start thinking about how many things we really truly take for granted as we get together with our kids and family over the holidays, to laugh and open gifts.
So I think it has made me more determined to make this bigger every year. I figure if I can help put a smile on one child's face, during a time where they should have no worries in the world, I have helped make a small difference during my lifetime.
Thank you to everyone that helped that past few years...and get prepared for me to continue to bug you year after year. :)
