The Cutest Pocket Design in the Universe

So, I know it's kinda small (I never said I was a photo uploading genius), but is this not the cutest pocket design ever? Special thanks to Alison Martin (www.amdesigns.biz) for designing our tshirt last year and coming up with this precious baby image for Team Aaron's Heart. :)



I've been thinking about bumper stickers of the pocket design, but my printer doesn't make them. I think they'd be cute on some bumpers around down. ;) Anybody got any tips on a printer for such items?

The Most Awesome 4 Year Old I Know

This is him. And even with occasional rottenness(is that even a word?), he is awesome. He's kind, witty, really REALLY smart, amazingly loving to his sister...the list goes on and on.




Just yesterday, we went for a walk after dinner. He was eating a popsicle and Shiloh an oreo. Or the cream from the oreo, but anywhoo. About halfway into the walk, he asked to get out of the stroller and walk beside me. And he asked to hold my hand. My heart just MELTS about it all. I am so thankful for his big heart and pray he keeps it forever.

Priorities

Let's face it. Everybody has a set. Yours may be different than those of your neighbor. He may like fast cars and big TVs while you like driving a paid-for car and watching free TV on hulu. You may mow your grass once a week, meticulously weed-eating and edging to make your yard look nice while your neighbor barely manages to chug down the grass with his tired pushmower twice a month. What makes your priorities "right?" I firmly believe that our priorities in life reflect the God we serve.

Right now, we are working to raise money for the March of Dimes by taking part in March for Babies. This event is a priority for us at this time, since it's important to us to honor the memory of our son, Aaron. However, it would be wrong for us to assume everyone's priority should be to donate to Team Aaron's Heart. Right now in our world, there is devastation in Japan. There are orphans awaiting homes all over our nation and in other countries. There are homeless men, women and children needing a place to sleep and food to eat in our very city. Does your God call you to make others in need a priority? If so, please give of your time, talents and resources to those in need today. Making the needs of others a priority honors and pleases our God.

And if you'd still like to join us in March for Babies on April 30th, we'd love to have you. No donation required. :)

Aaron's Heart 2011!

Let's raise some money for the March of Dimes! Tshirts will be $16 this year for those of you who will help by using local pickup. Add $5 if you would like your shirt shipped to you. :) Designs will be printed on Gildan 1000 shirts and should be high quality shirts just like last year!



Here's how tshirt purchases will work. I've added a paypal button to the top of my blog. It's reads "Donate Now." If you would like to purchase a shirt this year, simply use paypal to pay for the shirt(s) and send me sizing or shipping instructions through paypal. It should be easier than sending me checks! We had to raise the price of the shirts by $1 to cover paypal fees, but we will still be able to donate a ton of money to the March of Dimes!

Thanks so much for helping us honor the memory of Aaron through this important fundraiser for the March of Dimes! We hope you will walk with us on April 30th!
