Medical Supplies Continued

Some people have asked about this:

The Medical supplies include things like band-aids, ointments (Anti bacterial) simple items that you and I have readily available. The Dental supplies include toothbrushes, tooth-paist, mouthwash, floss. All these items you and I use on a dalie basis, but the people of Iraq DON'T have access to them. If you know of anyone or any group of people that are looking to do something, other than for the tax deduction, please let me know. THANK YOU!!!!

Things to send Steve

As of today...and this will change because Steve changes his mind every day.
1) Flavored Ice
2) Anything that cant melt - As of April 27th, it was about 100 Deg. in the sun
3) Phone cards - Wal-Mart & BJs has them. As long as they are compatible with AT&T

Medical Supplies Needed......

So it has been brought to my attention that there is a need for medical supplies in Iraq. If you have any interest in helping at all, please let me know by emailing me at sarah_lavalley@yahoo.com.

(There is also a need for school supplies, toys, clothing...anything you can possibly imagine.)

Donovan's First Birthday

So the first year came and went faster than anything I have ever experienced before. Donovan has done so much and Steve and I are so proud of him. Steve got to come home on R&R from Iraq for the big day. It was perfect.
