Hmmmm maybe in a a year or two, but with a Freshman now, things may have to change way before I'm ready to let them. We'll see.<br /><br />I agree with the comment about being groomed by the PTA for JDRF. You just traded letters and added one more! <br />Good for you and your purpose! Basket item suggestion....scrapbook stuff. Why shouldn't we scrapbook this monumental part of our lives as well, could be a healing process too! Heck, we have a cyber scrapbook within these blogs.....why not?! Food for thought....without carbs! LOL!<br /><br />Congratulations!:) Traciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01007765987473563241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569641350490898348.post-60347556822651875272010-07-23T15:48:39.358-04:002010-07-23T15:48:39.358-04:00Holy exhausted!

I've been a stay-at-home mom for 9 years, doing similar (but not quite as active) things as you. I'd love to volunteer at the Joslin Clinic, but not sure how I can make the hours work. Still figuring that out. Thank you for putting your energy into JDRF. It wouldn't succeed without people like you.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556301372427216486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569641350490898348.post-2660770430923765222010-07-23T03:34:20.234-04:002010-07-23T03:34:20.234-04:00I am super impressed at your dedication to volunte...I am super impressed at your dedication to volunteer.

I'm excited to have you working for the cause! I may have never met you in person, but I KNOW without a shadow of a doubt you are with JDRF for a reason, and they are hella lucky to have you!Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752883120541646427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569641350490898348.post-8362360412939727992010-07-22T17:26:35.918-04:002010-07-22T17:26:35.918-04:00Yay Lora!
