* A month or two ago, some young ladies contacted us about wanting to do a fundraiser to raise funds to help bring our son Hudson home.
* At first they wanted to do a car wash, but that didn't work out.
* So, they decided to do an event in which families could drop off their young children for a few hours while the parents went on a date for several hours.
* These young ladies are incredibly intuitive, innovative, passionate, and caring.

* We were completely humbled by this $200+ donation, but even more than the actual $$$ amount, was the heart that these young ladies put into the event to help us get our son home.
* These young ladies used their God-given creativity to give of their time and expertise (teaching and training younger children) to help us raise funds to complete our adoption.
* To everyone involved, in this both in the young ladies who ran the event, the parents who helped them, and the parents who dropped their kids off...THANK YOU!!!!
