My day continued today the same as usual. Got up this am went to boot camp, grocery store, Lowes, our rental house, checked status of Lane Kiffin moving back to USC {yikes}, met a girlfriend at Coffee Bean... not really paying much attention to the news. When I got home I turned on the news and had to turn it off because it bought such heartache.
While I was lying in my daughters bed tonight trying to get her to go to sleep, all I could think about was, how grateful I was the roof was not caving in on top of us...what a desperate feeling that must be, not being able to protect your own child.
After they were down I went directly to my computer and made a donation to Compassion International. My children, husband, family and friends are the only things that mean anything to me. I could not imagine them being taken away in a few seconds. I am always so grateful for my blessed life but tragedy like this reminds me even more.
I usually do not write post on current events but everyone who can, should try and donate something to the people in Haiti, who are suffering such despair and sadness tonight.
I always donate through Compassion International at www.compassion.com because I know that they are a wonderful organization but here are a couple of other places.
www.SalvationArmy.org
www.WorldVision.org
www.RedCross.org
20% of sales at www.LilysLaundryBoutique.com now through Sunday will be donated to Haiti Relief!
Text Haiti to 90999 to donate $10 to American Red Cross..saying they have already raised $ 4 Million this way...AWESOME!
Blessing to all your families.
