Smile On the positive side..........

Let me tell you what my niece did..............

Cara is my 11 year old niece that you all have prayed for in the past because she has a rare form of lymphoma. Right now it is in remission. The doctors tell my sister that it typically does this and then comes back and when it does, it comes with a vengeance. It's also only ever found in people in their 60's and older.

So Make A Wish got involved and sent Cara and her parents to DisneyWorld in Florida this last week. They do the most amazing job when they send the kids there.

One of the things they do is to give the kids money so they can buy souveniers while they are there. It is the KIDS money to do with as they please. Cara had $350 to work with ($100 came from her dad's boss and $25 came from their neighbor lady. The rest from Make A Wish)

Cara chose to use a very large portion of that money to buy Christmas gifts for all of her cousins and aunts and uncles and grandma for tonight at our family gathering.

The gift is not the important thing. The fact that an 11 year old chose to do something for others is. I am so impressed with this kid! She is definately a gem
