I spent my birthday doing random acts of kindness and handing out Emma's cards. It was one of my favorite birthdays ever. Such a fun, rewarding day and I hope she was looking down when we cookie bombed the bank teller. That was my favorite one of the whole day. My boys and I were cracking up. continue reading...

My son has been touched by Emma's story. We talk about her all the time, although we never got to meet her in person.
