Amazing

Kylen has a family!!!!!!  In just one day on the site, Kylen now has a family working very hard to bring her home as fast as possible.  It will probably be next week before we have information on Kylen's new family and hopefully a blog where we can follow their progress to bringing Kylen home.

Now, what this seems to mean is that Kylen is not being fundraised for in the same way.  I've been told to sit tight until Kylen's family has their own fundraising page and then we can help bring Kylen home.

In the meantime, there are SO MANY kids who are still waiting.  Go look at the kids on the Angel Tree.  They are listed in descending order of how big their current grants are.  Look at the faces of kids like Tabitha, and Justin.

Then.  Look at this face.


This is Suzanne.  Suzanne was born the same month and year and Nate and Julia.  She should be in kindergarten with them.

This is the face of a child who has been transferred.  Transferred?  Where?

To a mental institution.

More than likely she is in a crib.  Restrained.  Her head shaved so the caregivers do not have to deal with it.

A child.

Think about this for a second.  She's FIVE years old.  All she needs is a family to love her.  That's it.

Donate $5 to any one of these kids grant funds.  Suzanne has a Christmas Warrior named Sydney.  If you have a blog, Sydney is doing a blog design giveaway!

Here's the thing.  I know we are in a holding pattern on Kylen, but so many kids need our help.  Skip your Starbucks and donate it to one of the kids.  If you're feeling particularly generous, donate $35 and Reece's Rainbow will send you a Christmas ornament with the child's picture on it.

Share this post.  With as many people as you know.  Because maybe someone will see your post, look at one of those faces, and realize that's their son or daughter just out there waiting for them.
