It's been a while, huh? We have been SO busy with life, work and family the passed few months! As most of you know, Peter's mom, Rita, has terminal bone cancer. ALL of our free time is spent with her. If you haven't read her story, click HERE to get to know her and her wonderful husband, Graham.
Rita's health has been good, but not great. We know what we have to expect, and are SO blessed to be able to spend as much time as we can with her and Graham. It's times like this that make us thankful for family AND our CPKs - because they sure have been giving so and getting some good love lately!
We haven't stopped CPK Rescuers, it's just slowed down a bit! We have had about 100 donations from several amazing people around the US, and are SO appreciative of it! Most of them, you haven't even seen on the blog, because we want to get the Kids that have been with us for a while, into good, loving homes, first! We are at the point where we can't even accept donations right now, because we have SO many!
Kids are still going out, and finding GREAT homes! In fact, we are in talks with a friend that helps with orphans in Haiti, and some very special children there will be receiving CPKs from CPK Rescuers!
Jen has started a business and blog for couponing and deals (www.thebinderladies.com) and blogs ALL day, so it's hard to change back and forth to CPK Rescuers! But, now that she's gotten into the swing of things, she will make more time for CPK Rescuers, too.
Tonight, we got this INCREDIBLE email, where someone (Helen Mullins) nominated Jen for Yahoo's Women Who Shine:
We will definitely be trying to keep up with the blog and Facebook more often! Thank you ALL for your continued love and support! Keep on hugging your CPKs, and letting us of people that you know that could use some CPK lovin'!!
XOXOXOXO,
Jen & Peter
