Hey everyone! First I would like to apologize for not keeping up with the page very well. I found out back in July that I was expecting Twin Boys! With that I was very busy preparing for them. Well then they decided to come early. I had them on December 22 at just 30 weeks. So they had to spend some time in NICU. They are home now and doing great. Fast-forward to this week and they started daycare and I have come back to work! I am so happy to be back.
Second I want to let everyone that has donated anything that we did receive the items and we truly appreciate it. This room would not be possible without yall. Thank you so much.
And last but not least we are in need of some items. We really need men's summer clothing in all sizes. All donations must be new and can be taken to Burleson Health Resource Center in Caldwell.
Thank you everyone for everything. Yall are awesome!
