Henry Update!

I got to write a check today.

A check to help bring a lil’ boy home.

Not just any lil’ boy. This one…

Bring Henry Home

People get ready.

Henry is coming home.

To his forever home.

I love this.

This is why I started Eli’s Lids.

Really.

Henry’s family is close to their $$ goal. (SO CLOSE!!!)

You’ve helped a lot by buying Fedorables. (THANK YOU!!!)

Wanna help some more?

You might win an iPad.

Henry’s family is holding a contest for the month of August and the winner will win an iPad. There are also 2nd, 3rd, 4th place prizes (maybe some Lids in that mix soon).

Tickets are only $10 each or $40 for 5 tickets! (ONLY! Only $10 and you can be part of something big. Bigger than we may ever know.) AND if you share on FB you get a free ticket. EASY. And you should just share on FB anyway because, really folks. REALLY!?!?! (old SNL reference) Read this post for all the details, but you basically just decide on an amount to donate then click on the “donate” link in their blog sidebar.

Our kids separate a portion of their money to give away. They get to decide when, to whom, and how much (approved by us, of course). Tonight at dinner we talked about Henry (again) and gave them the option to donate. They decided to use all their money to get 2 tickets. Here they are talking about it… (Cora Jane mimics Eli the first half then you get to see them bicker… a peek into my daily life.)

Are you wondering how much we were able to donate to Bring Henry Home?

I’ll tell you…

Eli's Lids donation

Yep, $350!! That’s 25% of our Fedorable profit!

Holla!!

And in case you forgot the adorable-ness of our Fedorables…
