Sandy Hook

Day of Silence: I know all of you share my sadness over what happened yesterday. As a mother - I can't FATHOM how those parents must feel. This hits so close to home for Andrew and I; these babies that were taken are the age of our sweet Ethan (6.) I can't begin to think of what it would be like to lose him. I'm heartbroken for the all the families. I hope you will all be praying for the people of CT. They need our prayers. On Tuesday, December 18th, there will be a blogger day of silence. We will post the button and that's it. Please try to not post anything else that day if possible. We are also raising money that will go to an organization in the memory of this tragedy. The organization is called The Newtown Family Youth and Family Services. Here is the official description of the support service we are donating to: "Newtown Youth and Family Services, Inc. is a licensed, non-profit, mental health clinic and youth services bureau dedicated to helping children and families achieve their highest potential. NYFS provides programs, services, activities, counseling, support groups and education throughout the Greater Newtown area. ANY DONATIONS MADE TO NEWTOWN YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES WILL BE DONATED DIRECTLY TO THOSE EFFECTED BY THE SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SHOOTING." Please visit THIS PAGE to make your donation. We can't imagine how they must be feeling, especially this close to the holidays. We would love for you to spread the word on your own blog, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Let's make a difference and use blogging in a positive way. Thank you in advance for participating.
