The first page is SpinaKids..(link attached)
Lynne who runs this page is an absolute angel, constantly raising funds for those who need it by way of auctions.. I never noticed earlier, but again there is a fabulous spread of donations and were calling for all bidders to drop by and help raise the money for a bed for Chloe(as seen in picture) which will help her stay upright enough when she sleeps to assist with her lung function..
The auction started 1st of March and ends on the 13th of March so there is no time to waste! Drop in and help support this wonderful cause. Lynne i promise when i come back from this break, i will be back into the swing of things and throwing more donations your way, and i will not take no for an answer!

Another wonderful little page is Help Joel Kick a Goal
Joel is one of Tracey's son's, whom you might know from the beautiful page Sugar an spice, this young man is a great example of a child who has a dream and is working to find a way to fund it! Most people dont know but this courageous young man has Aspergers Syndrome and also has Type 1 Diabetes. The family were told Joel would never play team sports but his absolute love for Soccer has ensured his total dedication and he has now been selected to play for Wide Bay U13's. This is one step away from making the State team.
Tracey was looking at different options for Joel to work towards paying for his passion, to teach him the values of hard work and focusing on the goal. So the auction was born. Again the donations are flooding in but where are all the bidders!! Were hoping to see this a success, it would take a little of the financial strains associated with sports off the family and make it all the while more special to Joel.
Other pages who are involved with Joel's auction is the one and only Lynne from SpinaKids who as you know is raising funds herself but still generous with other causes, Belinda from Raising Hope For Brittany another cause, Christine from jelly bean books who is also running a competition to help raise the numbers on Joel's page, Kimberlina from handmade with love by me 4 u another lovely generous lady who i have had the pleasure of getting to know and call a friend, and SO MANY MORE, including one of my last custom order donations until i get back on my feet.
One thing i have noticed when it comes to Facebook is that there are so many generous people out there, please help us find some more and point them in the direction of all the causes.
I better sign off soon before i loose my cool with my yes i dare say it, TERRIBLE 2, she seems to have woken up one day JUST to annoy the crap out of me and do EVERYTHING i tell her not too and im loosing carpet in the lounge room at present she has pulled out so much stuff, but yes i do take comfort in the fact she is just normal, but i will be smiling non stop when she grows out of this stage ; )
