To be part of

an AWESOME cause, I emailed Fabre Sanders Friday evening wondering nervously if I was too late to join in the Memorial Day Blog Hop... very graciously, she included me in the venture. If you are not sure as to what I am talking about, click here or copy & paste the following link: http://cardsforheroes.org/

This is a network of volunteer crafters who make cards for the armed forces and can use donations to ship those cards to the US troups all around the globe to keep in touch with their loved ones back home. So far, they have been able to send 140,875 cards. And this is the impact of this effort-"Please pass our gratitude to all of your volunteers . . . the cards make us want to reach out to people that we haven’t made contact with in years—simply because the cards force you to want to share a smile. I can’t say enough to express our gratefulness."—CPT L.C., Iraq, Army.

There are over 100 stops on the hop. Lots of great prizes and RAKS on individual blogs, and some special incentives on the homesite(www.cardsforheroes.org)

If you have made it this far in the bloghop then, Hi, I'm Mou in Tampa, Florida, USA and here's what I created



to say THANK YOU for your sacrifices to keep us safe at home :)

And now, to continue your hop, your next stop is Charmaine of Pittsburg, PA, USA at http://oodabugalley.blogspot.com/2009/05/memorial-day-blog-hop.html.
