    [quote=koko][quote=fayzer]No, I have adopted 3 military members. I support each them with a letter a week and a package a month. I love supporting our soldiers! I am also on the sewing team and letter writing team. I'm proud to be a Soldiers' Angel. Thank you for asking.

    We make quilts, fleece blankets, cooling scarves, sand scarves. We also sew forTKO aka Top Knot Organization. You can make items for babies and children like bibs, embriodered onies, quilts, cute shoes, shopping cart seat covers, etc . We hold large baby showers on bases where each expectant military mom gets a basket filled with baby goodies. There are also requests for snuggle quilts for children who have lost a parent in the war effort.

    Lori do you have help? And please remember to take care of yourself also. Remember to eat, bath, spend some along quiet time so you do not become overwhelmed. May Marty's angels wrap her in their healing arms and comfort her as she goes this ordeal.
