Pitty Party

For the last 2 days I have been having a pitty party for myself. I had a bad day the other day, or should I say, I had a breakdown. I had a breakdown over how bad I suck as a mother. While wallowing in self pitty, I was blog surfing and came across this post from Christie's blog. It was then and there that I came to grips with the realization, that my life is GREAT. After reading about the Nielson's accident and the recent mishaps of other good people, I would hate for something tragic to happen to me or my family to humble me and make me realize how great my life really is.

I decided to dig myself out of my hole and do something good. I don't know the Neilson's personally. I am one of those who frequents her blog, and it is through this that I feel even the smallest connection. I have decided join in with hundreds of other bloggers in cyber world to auction something off and donate the proceeds to the Neilson family. My advertising circle isn't that big. So I am asking you to do something good and either place a bid, email your friends and family to bid, or place a link to my auction on your blog. Whether I am able to donate $5 dollars or $500 dollars, knowing that I am doing something and am able to contribute in a small way is the least I can do.

I am auctioning cards for my auction. To place a bid, please click here or goto my stamping blog for all the details.

It's so sad what happened. The flight instructor that didn't make it was actually in my parents ward. It's really touched so many peoples lives. You're awesome for doing this!
