Thank you, YT angels! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Graleyne · 07-20-2008, 06:07 AM

I am not sure how much I am allowed to say, but I wanted to thank some wonderful angels.

As of today I have received $65 in my paypal account as well as $35 in giftcards (they arrived yesterday) from some very special YTers for a very special reason.

I wanted to make sure I said THANK YOU from the very bottom of my heart. I know two adorable little munchkins who are going to absolutely DELIGHTED!

altigger74 · 07-20-2008, 06:26 AM

I'm so excited for them! I think for the most part e've all been there, at least I know we have, and help is the last thing you want to ask for but the best thing to recieive.

I would love to see pictures of their smiling faces when the shopping is done.

Graleyne · 07-20-2008, 06:31 AM

I am going to check with their mom and make sure its OK for me to post their pics. Definitely don't want to do that without her knowledge and permission.

They are sooo cute and just the sweetest kiddos ever.

chattiesmom · 07-20-2008, 06:46 AM

Arreica - my gift card will go out in tomorrow's mail. Hopefully you will have it by the middle of the week. I trust your judgement comletely and entirely, but will you please make sure that litle "S" gets something Hannah Montana

Graleyne · 07-20-2008, 07:08 AM

LOL I don't think I will have any choice in S getting something Hanah Montanna. Apparently she is the latest rage among 5 year olds.

The last couple times she has been to wal-mart with me there have been racks and racks of Hanah stuff that she has been eyeballing. I mean they have everything. Clothes, backpacks, notebooks, pencils, lunchboxes, even underwear. You name Hanah Montana's face is on it. (although I'm not entirely sure I would want my face plastered on underwear...lol)

altigger74 · 07-20-2008, 07:13 AM

LOL! It sounds like you're going to have just as much fun as they are!

red98vett · 07-20-2008, 07:14 AM

I just sent you a pm....What you're doing is wonderful

Graleyne · 07-20-2008, 07:22 AM

PM sent back!

Oh I am going to have so much fun taking them shopping. I am going to make sure they get what they need, but maybe splurge just a little and get a couple of the "cool" things.

erickajm · 07-20-2008, 08:08 AM

If the parents are okay with it...I think it would be nice to have them pose with all the loot they get! I also wonder if maybe you were to contact your walmart and let them know what was going on that maybe they may even donate some money...I know there are needy kids everywhere, however, they donate to all sorts of causes...wouldn't hurt to ask...Have fun! Wish I were closer I would go with you! Keep us updated!

nudiva37 · 07-20-2008, 08:14 AM

I will be touching base with you on Friday and shipping their box...
I am so excited too...

Thank you for caring...

Graleyne · 07-20-2008, 08:19 AM

That is a GREAT idea! I will definitely call and ask. Worst they can do is say no.

I wonder if I should print out the thread to show them so they don't think I'm just some crazy lady?

lol! It may help! I just hope they don't take offense to it! We all fall on hard times from time to time...It is very heart warming to see so many come together to help strangers out...you just don't hear of it too often anymore!

Graleyne · 07-22-2008, 07:02 AM

Just wanted to update and let everyone know that another $10 giftcard arrived in the mail yesterday. THANK YOU!

So far the totals are:

Giftcards: $45
Paypal: $85

I am going to use the paypal donations to get their hair cut, then hopefully have enough left over to pay for lunches for the first week of school, plus those wonderful miscellaneous $5 for this, $7 for that things they slap you with at the beginning of the school year.

Just wanted to thank yet another fabulous YT angel! (((hugs)))

MeganS · 07-22-2008, 07:11 AM

YAY!! Aerrica this is so fantastic. I can't wait to hear all about their shopping spree (and see pics if their parents are OK with it

).

I'm getting paid today (YAY) so I'm aiming to have it out by this weekend at the absolute latest.

Angela · 07-22-2008, 07:14 AM

Hey, just wanted update you since we have pm'd I have started getting things for J set aside......the boys had some very nice clothes they grew out of. I just need to make sure the stuff they may have stained or ripped dosen't get shipped! I asked my sister about a size 10 for S....she may have some, I will re read your thread to check S size. If my neice has anything I will send it with the boys. I am just slow right now, but they can use it in a few weeks.....I am SURE they are going to want to wear their new stuff first. Bless those little Angel's and you for for bringing this to our attention. I have a lot to go through b/c I just bagged it all for a sale about a month ago and I can't lift the bags now, I will get help getting them on the couch and then I can go to town....lol at least I will be out of everybody's way. They don't want me here breathing paint and cleaners, but they don't want me on the road....I would like for them to tell me where they want me....lol maybe not!

You are a WONDERFUL person and so are all these YT Angels
Hugs,
Angie
