Can one family of five, plus two grandparents, combine efforts and commit to one act of service each day, for one year? Paul, Patricia, twins Bianca & Olivia (age 18), Sophia (age 11), and their Nana and Buppa, plan to honor the 10 year anniversary of the loss of my sister with a year dedicated to service. Together, with maybe the help of a relative here or there, we will commit to 365 days of volunteering,contributing or supporting, in appreciation of what we have.... and who we have lost.

Day 161: Birthday Wishes to Homeless Children
Today, I went to iPARTY to look over and choose the paper goods for our gathering next weekend in memory of Marie. On the way out, the young cashier asked me if I would like to contribute to "Birthday Wishes." I had never heard of it so he explained it all to me. "Birthday Wishes" has one mission: to bring birthday parties to homeless children. He elaborated a bit more and I agreed to donate a small donation to what seems to me to be a worthy cause. If you would like to learn more about how you can help, go to their website which is http://www.birthdaywishes.org/
