This is such a cute little girl. Take a minute to read about this very sweet young lady!

“Pay attention to the person, the child, the soul—not the wheelchair, the chromosome, the difference. Allow yourself to be astonished—to learn something new from someone, to be inspired, to laugh, to enjoy a moment. And then pass it on. Spread your awareness message by the way you live, the way you speak and the way you treat people.” – Enjoying the Small Things - Kelle Hampton

We love this little lady so much and are so incredibly blessed by her! Check out more photos of this stylish girl: http://themerrythought.com/family/3-21/

What a great story!

It's a little mind boggling to me that 834k (and counting) have liked Caden's photo on the 46 Mommas Shave for the Brave page! I wish those all translated to donations to help end childhood cancer, go give the Momma's page a like if you haven't (I shaved in 2013) and check it out, they raise funds for St. Baldrick's Foundation - great organization helping fund much needed research into childhood cancers

“Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve. ... You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”

You Have To Watch This – Kids Explain Autism, And Why Being Different Is Okay!

Watch this! This film helps children understand others on the autism spectrum, and how they can accept and relate to them.

Autism is a difficult condition to accept. Try to imagine being the peers of a child diagnosed with autism. Confused and unfamiliar with behaviors associated with autism, some of those peers may develop to a negative perspective.

Just a quick "share"; a reminder of all the wonderful pets that are available for adoption. How can you not love this cutie????

A cat that enjoys dress-up and gives hugs? Maybe not the norm, but don't tell KEREKES that ... she is uniquely wonderful. Keke, as she is affectionately called, will take her 2 front legs and wrap them around your neck and tuck her head under your chin - a purrfect hug that will melt your heart and should have you emailing to adopt her right away.
This beauty is an 8 year old petite female kitty that is looking for her forever home. She is currently in a wonderful foster home and her foster mom reports that she is just the sweetest thing, loves people and is so very gentle. Kerekes loves to love and be loved. When she is not on your lap or giving hugs, Kerekes can be found playing with toys. She just loves them. Feather toys, swatting balls across the room and then chasing after them, all great fun for her.
While Kerekes would prefer to be your one and only pet, if the right situation presented it, we may be able to make it work.
Let's get this wonderful girl a home - please share her! Her new family can contact Rescue Ridge either via rescueridge.com or email - [email protected]
