Bye-Bye Summer

Just back last night from our last visit to the lake for this summer season… The weather was gorgeous, and Chloe and I got to enjoy tooling around in the water a few last times. It always makes me sad to say goodbye for the summer, especially as this was Chloe’s first one there – but it makes me look that much more forward to next summer… 🙂

I’m still trying to figure out a way to help victims of Katrina. Cash is a given… but there so much more I want to do, but I’m just not sure of the best way to go about it. So that’s on my agenda today – figuring out what we as a family can do to help and support those in need. I am grateful for my family’s health and vitality, for everything we have, which is more than enough, that I have this huge pull to do more in addition to sending cash. I look at those babies… it just breaks my heart. I had a vision of going into Carter’s (clothing for kids) and just buying them out, boxing up every item, and shipping it to Houston, with a picture of Chloe and a letter sending prayers and peace of mind, saying we know how blessed we are to have this beautiful baby girl, who is healthy, well clothed and fed… If nothing else, this is a real motivator to continue to build a highly profitable business.
