Entry for March 07, 2007

I made someone cry today by doing something nice. That is so much better than making someone cry because they're sad. Maybe you'd like to make someone cry by doing something nice. I have a great way!

There are two children in my 3-5 grade choir that have Juvenile Diabetes. They have teamed up to join the Walk for a Cure in Charlotte in April. Taylor is in 5th grade and has lived with diabetes for 7 years. He wears an insulin pump and is such a normal boy that you tend to forget that he has this life-shortening disease. McKenzie is 8 years old and is the cutest little blonde girl you've ever seen. Her little life has been forever changed by this- she gets excited when she finds something with no sugar in my candy jar- and upset when someone brings in cupcakes she can't have.

If you want to make their mothers cry, and help children like these, please consider making a donation to JDRF, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. We need to find a cure to help kids like these live long, healthy, normal lives.

Here is a link to "Team Taylor" so that your dollars can be credited to these two wonderful kids as they try to raise $10,000 for their cause. Thanks for helping them! Team Taylor
