March for Babies 2012


The past few days have been rough. I just want to say thank you for all your support. It really means so much. This morning I want to share something important to me with you all.

Nygel and I are participating in the March of Dimes walk again this year. The March for Babies is being held April 29th here and I'm hoping to raise close to the amount I raised last year. I've set my goal at $1000 which seems like a lot but it means so much to me to donate to this important cause so I'm going for it again! If you would like to donate to my March for Babies walk in memory of Aiden you can click the link below and it will take you right over:

Also if you love jewelry then check out the online Silpada fundraiser my friend Bethany is putting on right now. It's called "Shop For Healthier Babies" and if you purchase a piece of jewelry online from my Silpada party Bethany will donate part of the money from the sale directly to the March of Dimes. Isn't that just amazing? Thank you so so much Bethany!

To place an online order for the fundraiser please follow these steps:


  • Visit www.mysilpada.com/bethany.earl1, chose the pieces you love and add them to your shopping cart. 
  • When you are done shopping click the "Checkout" link and you will be prompted to sign up as a new customer. 
  • Once signed in, click the "View Hostess List" button and select Natasha Jackson. 
  • You will then be able to continue the ordering process.
This jewelry is really fabulous and such a great quality. And I love Bethany for offering to host this amazing fundraiser to help raise money for our March for Babies team. So if you need gifts for Easter, birthdays, Mother's Day, or graduations please take a moment and check it out. Shopping online for the fundraiser can be done now through March 21, 2012. So get those orders in if you're interested!

If you are doing a March for Babies walk in your area I'd like to wish you good luck in fundraising!!! It really is such a worthy cause- helping families have healthier baies. And thank you-thank you-thank you to all the sweet friends who have already donated to my walk! It means so much to have your support!

Forever a Mama



I just want to wish all those fabulous BLMs out there a happy Babylost Mother's Day.  We will never forget our little ones and we know that we are forever mamas!  I'm wishing you much peace and strength today.

To celebrate Nygel and I waked with Team Kelsey in the March of Dimes Walk for Babies here in Houston.  I can't tell you how in awe I was of all the people out there walking for healthy babies!  It was AH-MA-ZING!!!!  The day was beautiful and it was great walking around the University of Houston campus.  Along the way we got lots of water, fans, and Blue Bell Ice Cream.....ummmmmm!!!!


We are so happy that we were able to have this special butterfly placed in the Butterfly Memorial Garden for my precious baby boy!  Isn't it cute!!!!  Love Nygel in the garden with Aiden's butterfly!!!



I got to do the walk with some very special people including Nygel, John, Val, and lots of co-workers. We had such a good time and we're already planning for next year.  The t-shirts are going to be fabulous!!!!!  Can't wait!



After the walk we had lunch at BJ's- LOVE!  We were so tired but managed to eat some good stuff!  Clearly I was most interested in photographing the wings and dessert!!!!  Yum!






Anyway,  I'm exhausted so I'm about to go to bed :(  Thank you everyone for your kind words and well wishes.  I'm feeling better- not 100 percent but better.  I so appreciate you keeping me in your prayers.  I thank God all the time for placing so many wonderful women in my life.

Thank you Aiden for making me a mom........thank you for letting me love you........thank you for being the most amazing baby ever.........thank you for being my son.  I love you baby boy, forever and always!


Love,
Mommy
