Please I need help

9/25/2011

 
Okay so I am going to try and be sneaky here and I will try my best because Mom Doesn’t really get on here much. Each year I ask Mom what to get her for Christmas and each year she says all she wants is a good meal and a happy, healthy family. She lives her whole life that way, including for the animals on the farm and at the shelter.  She never wants for herself always for others.  In our home Mom teaches us that God wants us to be the gardeners and zoo keepers of the world.  It is what he created Man for.  She says everything after that in the bible is to fix how badly we messed that job up.  But this year I am not going to ask her what she wants for Christmas because I have the perfect Idea for Mom for her Christmas Present but I need all the help I can get … Please send every person you know to read this post even if they are not a follower of my Blog.  
    As you all know Mom lost Rebel  (He was a 150 lb St. Bernard) just this week and last night she was saying how  they don’t have enough blankets for beds for the animals at the shelter and what  they do have is falling apart from being used for a year. When the Shelter first  opened knitters and Crocheters in the town made all shapes and sizes of beds for the cats and dogs at the shelter but they have been well used or “loved” as Mom calls it. So  For christmas I am asking everyone I know to donate a blanket in Rebels name. It  doesn’t have to be knitted or crocheted it can be bought. All you have to do is  mail them with a note telling Mom that they are donated in Rebels name to PO Box 1654, Coffeyville, Ks 67337 Or you could just donate one to your local shelter and just drop Mom a note saying you did it in Rebel’s name.
    So what do you think can we get the animals at the shelter enough beds and make Mom's day???

This is a great idea.
Your Mother will love it.
I am right on it.

When do you want us to send them ?
Now ?
I am sure everyone will include a card and you can hang them all up at Christmas

You can send them anytime ... The cards are for Mom and I plan on saving them and making a bulletin Board full of them at the shelter at Christmas with them all...
