Sleepover and fundraiser....

So for the first time ever that I can remember Faith stayed the night at her friends house last night!!!! WOW. Cass stayed here with her two sisters, he had a sleepover of his own!! Her and Cass also had a very successful open house at her school Friday evening. The entire school/staff was eagerly awaiting their arrival so they could meet Cass. They are all keenly aware of Faith's struggles over the years with school and her mood disorders. Let me tell you they both were AMAZING!!! Every person, and I mean every person who knows her told me they noticed a huge difference in her demeanor and the way she was walking around with a new sense of confidence. Cass did great, laying down every time she stopped and took a nap. Her principal, Dr. Butler, who has had experience with service dogs in the past, was also impressed with Cass. he is an amazing dog, and Little Angels does an amazing job with the dogs and the training they do with the recipients. I know Monday, the first day of school will be tough, but I know it will be successful. Never in my wildest dreams would I imagine that Faith would have a sleepover with a friend, much less two nights before the first day of school. Normally she would be angry, not feeling good, snapping at people, etc. Let me say it again, this has been the longest struggle I have ever had to reach a goal; getting this dog for Faith. But in just the last month of having him and seeing the difference in my daughter it has all been worth it. We may have had some jelly sandwiches for a lot of dinners for lack of funds....but they are tasting like prime rib today!!! We also have a friend in Texas who is doing an online fundraiser. Please go to our FB site or Faith's Story on Facebook and read about it. If you do not want to purchase this Scentsy product pass it forward. I know someone will and it will be going towards Little Angels. Thanks so much to Marlaine Fluery for helping with this cause. She came to us with this wonderful idea!!!! She is a special lady and we are so glad to have her as a friend!!!! Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!!! Kris

This month the buddies are 10% off but I will be donating 25% of regular price (before taxes) of all buddies purchased to Faith, Cass and Little Angels Service Dogs.
Why: I was touched by the struggles this family has dealt with emotionally and financially to provide for Faith and their family. They have had to take out a huge loan to provide for Cass, who will allow Faith to return to school this fall. Cass was provided by the Little Angels Service Dogs as well as the training for Faith that was needed to be successful with Cass.
Even after they pay off this loan they intend to pay it forward and want to help another much deserving individual receive their service dog.
What a wonderful example of a family “Giving more than they Take.”
