You do what you can...

I have just finished sorting through all of Kade's baby things and boxed it up to be taken to a local transport company for delivery to the bushfire victims. I had kept all of Kade's stuff and I am SO glad that I did. It has all been packed away and well cared for, ready to give to someone who really needed it...and now is the time.

I have gathered :
  • 7 nappy boxes full of baby clothes
  • a nappy box full of baby bottles, a microwave steam steriliser & a packet of sterilising tablets
  • a bag of baby blankets and bunny rugs
  • a box of toiletries, facewashers & towels (how pleased am I that I bought about a dozen Colgate toothbrushes for $1 each !?)
  • a bag of misc baby items; bottle warmer, cot bumper, baby backpack, etc
  • a double stroller
  • a baby rocker
  • a port-a-cot... 14 years old but in excellent condition
  • a baby bath

...it's the best I can do; I hope that it helps.

It's more than what a lot of people would do or could even manage.

Without ever having met you in person you are making a difference to someone's life out there; people are going to appreciate you and be forever thankful. You're a true sweetheart, Cindy. Thank you for just being you. M x

Blimey! You have most definately helped out a LOT of people/families with this donation Cindy. I only sent a pizza box full of scrapping items.

It's people like you Cindy that make the world a better place...
