Giving back.....

Lately it has been weighing heavy on my heart to volunteer.  I have spoke with a NICU nurse who was there for us when Preston was sick.  I am going to talk to the Social Worker at the hospital about volunteering my babysitting services.  I would accept donations to pay for supplies/gas but other than that I feel I need to give to those who are struggling with older siblings while their child is sick in the NICU.  I was there and was fortunate to have a support system but there are those who are in there who have no choice or support.  When we stayed at the Ronald McDonald House in Charlotte I felt very strongly about giving back.  I hope that I can be of help to families that are struggling with sibling care.  I feel that things are happening in my life for a reason.  I am just going to do what I feel my heart is telling me to do.  CVMC is currently expanding their Pediatric facility to accommodate the growing need and with that comes more families who are needing help.  I hope that I can provide them a service that helps take away one stress that weighs on their shoulders and hearts.  Sibling Sitting...Giving back.

When the Dinner Bell Rings: The Super Easy Way to Getting Meals Ready ~ DUMP C...:

I tried my first "dump" recipe today and I must say that my house has smelled delicious ALL day and I only spend 5-10 minutes preparing dinner! I changed up the recipe slightly and I put it in the crock pot instead of the oven!
