I know I've been quiet on the blogging front lately - the Reece's Rainbow Angel Tree has been keeping me busy ! As you may recall, I pledged to try and raise $1000 for the adoption grant of Buddy, an 11 year old orphan with Down Syndrome, who lives in Eastern Europe. You can see him on the side - look at his grant !! The numbers in red are the important ones - once that number hits $1000 - I will shave my head !!
Why ? See THIS post !
Why ? See THIS post !
My 9 year old son, Nathaniel, also pledged to shave his head - but he got a little impatient ! So we decided he could shave his head when Buddy's Angel Tree grant reached $500. Now - you can probably see - his red number isn't yet to $500 - however, we do have a check in hand, that will be mailed to Reece's Rainbow tomorrow, that WILL take him above $500 !!
SO - today, my baby boy got his head shaved !! I must admit, I thought I would hate it - but he still looks pretty cute :) Here are a few photos from today.
So - now - we wait for my turn !!!
I'm hoping it won't be long before Buddy's grant has that magic $1000 in red numbers !!!
