Inspired to do something!

Well I am sitting at home reading blogs because I'm such a moron and lost my keys AGAIN. For those of you who don't know me that well I am extremely absent minded to a ridiculous degree. I'm supposed to be volunteering in Cai's class right now, but can't since I lost my keys AGAIN! I'm too frustrated with myself to do something productive and started scanning facebook and blogs to get my mind occupied. I came across the most wonderful story on the blog of a friend of mine and I was inspired to do something to help as well. Nothing like someone elses mountainous problems to make you feel like yours are just a mole hill.

There is a little girl named Taylie who is 4 years old and recently diagnosed with AML Leukemia. Her family is obviously terrified and drowning in medical bills that are only going to get higher. I came across a link to her blog, and really felt inspired to help out, and any one can do it too. It just takes a minute of your time to help this family. If you want to help all you need to do is write a short introduction about Taylie on your blog with a link to http://www.tayliebug.com/ then go to adashofseason.blogspot.com and leave a comment there indicating you made the link on your blog and you're done! Someone has offered to donate $2 for every blog with her link as long as you indicate you have done so on adashofseason.blogspot.com. So easy for a family that could really use some help. I was so impressed that someone would do this for a little girl they hardly know. We live in a beautiful world, full of beautiful people who really care.

BTW her family is having a charity 3K run/walk, 5K run October 10th. The 5K and 3K walk start at 10 a.m. and the 3K run starts at 10:20 a.m. Early registration is closed, but you can register there.
