A man that we go to church with is dying of liver failure. He is 24 years old, and the Dr's don't know why his liver is failing. Some of his friends and family held a car wash today to raise money for Dr and hospital bills. We went down and got the suburban washed and donated as much as we possibly could.
K as we were getting ready to go- Mom, can I bring my bike and have them wash it?
Me- No sweetie, we can wash your bike when we get home.
K (pretty sad)- Oh.... (starting to cry)
Me- What is wrong honey?
K- I wanted to have them wash my bike so I could donate some of my money too.
Me- OH! (WOW!!!) Well, I think your new bike is too big to take, but we can take your old small bike. How much money do you want to donate?
K- Well, I was thinking like $10.
Me- (WOW AGAIN!!!!) Well I think that would be very nice.
K- Thanks Mom! I really want to help them.
Me- That is VERY kind of you! I'm very proud of you!
