I'm entering for my dear friend who suffers from a chronic illness that makes lifting and caring for her 3 small children pretty tough. One of those kids was diagnosed with diabetes a few months ago, and her husband, who is in the military and often far away has been out of work for the past several months. This girl who puts everyone else's needs before her own, would LOVE to receive this.

Thanks so much for giving US the chance to give to someone else! I love the idea.

lorchick @ ON{thelaundry}LINE said...

This would be a pleasant surprise for my friend who was my maid of honour. On Saturday, her sister (who was her best friend) and her sister's fiancee passed away in an instant in a tragic car accident at the age of 22.
We're all trying to do special things for her, like we're going to go to her house while she's out of town for the funeral and clean it top to bottom and fill her freezer with meals.
This would be a nice little bit of sunshine for her, especially since she had her first baby six months ago so her figure has changed a lot so she's going through that 'I have no clothes' first year. She was just telling me the other week that she has almost no winter clothes right now.
