This past week was just a crazy, crazy ride. I started a new job(well officially started) and it has been a lot of adjusting. As many of you know I am a nanny and have been with one family for about 2 years. I recently had to move on from that job, the hours were just not enough, but it was hard to leave:( However, we are still in contact and I will continue to do some babysitting for them here and there, thank goodness.
I have so much I want to blog about, I just need to find the time.
I did however want to share with you a very special entry about a wonderful family who are helping to change young lives over in Africa. Kristen, Terrell and their three children have opened up The Mercy House over in Kenya, this is a place to help out young women who are pregnant and give them options that they would not have available to them normally. They provide among many things : housing, medicine, counseling as well as job skills.
I have been following Kristen's blog and Twitter and saw her call out for donations. Kristen runs an Etsy site called We are that family, in which she sells her donations to help raise money for Mercy House. I immediately knew I wanted to help out, if one of my items in my shop can help contribute to this wonderful effort this family is working on, I just knew I had to be a part of it.
(For Sale in The Mercy Shop $15.)
I urge you to go check out their Etsy shop, also Kristen's personal blog as well as The Mercy house website. There are so many ways you can help, whether its buying something in the store or spreading the word on your blog. It all helps to make a difference:)
