I know life continues but...

I am having a hard time concentrating on much of anything while there is so much suffering in Haiti. I know I typically don't speak out about much, but I have friends directly involved with the lovely Haitian people...and especially the children. To make a long story short I have a good friend, her name is Wendy Prentice, and her son has devoted his life to helping make the world a better place. He has spent endless hours de-worming the children of Haiti, and this is only one tiny spot in his huge heart. I've never had the honor to meet Aaron personally, but I feel like I know him to some degree. His Mom, Wendy, has become a very dear person in my life. She is my muse, my inspiration, and though she'd more than likely say she's not a hero....well, I beg to differ. She is extremely proud of her son, and I can see why. While others are fleeing Haiti, her son Aaron chooses to run back to the people he loves so dearly to help. I will make this post short as I would like to keep the focus on donating to Aaron's organization, Planting Peace. As you can see at the top of my blog the Planting Peace logo is there and you can click on it and donate any amount you feel comfortable with. They accept PayPal so that should make it very easy for most. Again, the web site is www.plantingpeace.org and any amount is sincerely appreciated by the selfless people that run this organization. Peace & love to all! Lisa

Happy New Year & HELP

My wish is for everyone that knows us and visits us, whether daily or only once in a while. please go to http://www.plantingpeace.org/ and donate to help the people of Haiti. This is an organization near and dear to my heart because of a close friend. Wendy, of whom I have spoken often, is the wonderful Mom to this selfless young man that has devoted his life to helping deworm the children of Haiti. I ask you donate anything, even a mere $5.00 is such a help! Skip something you'd spend that $5.00 on and help those who are truly in need right now. I ask you give in the name of just being kind. Thank you everyone that donates. I truly have nothing to lose by asking for your help....to help this organization continue to do the wonderful things they've been doing for years...they just need a little extra help right now, so let us one & all do the right thing and pay it forward....thanks for listening...thanks for the help! With all my love to you all that donate and pray for Aaron, and for all that help the people of Haiti right now....thank you from the bottom of my heart & soul....again that web site is http://www.plantingpeace.org/
