To me...you are 12 EXTRAordinary Women! I hardly have words for the emotions I felt when I was unexpectedly handed an envelope by a woman in sunglasses at my front door. I don't know who brought the gift, but I do know that it came from a special place in your hearts.
Your generous gift of cash, a silver necklace of "hope" and a crocheted cross all traveled with me to Haiti to meet our son for the first time. I have worn the necklace everyday. We used the cash toward many expenses in Haiti, and I carried the cross with me everywhere we went.
Our goal of appearing in three different courts in Haiti was met. Our travel was safe despite some very unnerving moments, and our sweet boy melted our hearts. We can't bring him home soon enough, and it was so difficult to have to leave him.
Your thoughtfulness and gifts will always hold special, tender meaning for me. I literally was speechless when I opened the envelope, and I was deeply humbled to be on the receiving end of such kindness and generosity.
Thank you all again and thank you for touching the lives of people everywhere!
You remain EXTRAordinary to me!
