The Love Drop team is at it again! Last month they gave
over $5,000 worth of cash and goods to their recipient,
the Aubin family, who was struggling financially after the passing of their dad,
and this month they’re ready to do it again and help out another person 🙂
They’ve given out over $45,000 in the past 6 months, and show no signs of
stopping. If you know of anyone yourself that could use their help, make sure
to let them
know.

This month they’re heading down to Atlanta to help Felicity, a little 4-year-old girl who was just
diagnosed with brain cancer. Felicity had immediate surgery and is
currently undergoing aggressive radiation treatments for the remaining portion
of her tumor. We want to raise $5,000 for her family to help cover mounting
medical costs, as well as the future expenses a new baby on its way will bring.
With your support and generosity, we can really do something special for
them!

Here are three ways you can help:
- Give $25 towards medical bills <– Click this link to contribute $25
towards Felicity’s radiation treatments. It’ll help them out a ton! - Give a gift or service– Gift cards are always helpful. Places like Target,
Wal-mart, restaurants, etc would definitely help them out. Services too –
especially those you can offer yourselves, or from your company. - Join our blogger network – Blog about our Love Drops each month like I am 🙂
It’s easy, it’s rewarding, and it REALLY helps spread the word (which in turn
helps our families). Love Drop will give you all the content you
need.
Thanks so much guys! Here’s to a great month of paying it forward!

Next, it was the angry finger pointing of a girl I did not know that made me think, “I better go see what park mishap is occurring.” By the time I stood next to the two girls, the other girl had put her finger away but explained to me with great feeling that my daughter had climbed up on the tire swing, even though she had been saving it for her little brother.
While her defense of her little brother was admirable (boy, do I wish my big brother would have stood up for me like that when we were kids!), it was also obvious that her toddler brother—sliding down the kiddie slide with his mother at the other end of (more…)
