Special Request: Postcards from the Heart

Hello Friends!

I need your help. I received this email from a co-worker who knows the wonderful and inspiring teacher who wrote the following request. Please take a moment to make a difference in this little girl's life. Feel free to spread the word, too. Thank-you from the bottom of my heart. La

I am a fifth grade teacher in London, Ohio, and one of my most sincere and joyous students, Reagyn, has a brain tumor. It is now in stage three, and her family is being forced to move to Virginia for a few months so she can receive proton radiation from one of the best doctors in the country. Reagyn remains optimistic and spreads positive energy everywhere she goes. She helps others and puts everyone before herself. In fact, last week she headed a school wide campaign to start saving pop tabs so that Ronald McDonald would visit Children's Hospital in Columbus. Needless to say, there are a few thousand pop tabs already. Recently, we had a conversation about what she collects, and she said nothing, well except for SillyBandz; but what fifth grader doesn't? Then I asked her what she has always wanted to collect but never got the opportunity. She told me she wished she could receive "postcards from all over the world." Let's make this happen!

This is where my favor comes into play. We are asking anybody and everybody to send a little note of support and/or telling her something about your location on a POSTCARD. My entire class and our wonderful secretaries are helping Reagyn fulfill this dream. Please, please pass this email on to everyone you know. It would make a huge difference in Reagyn's life. She received her first postcard today from London, England!

She now has her own website at www.reagynsworld.weebly.com Feel free to leave her a short blog of support on her website.

All postcards can be sent to London Elementary at:

Reagyn Semler
c/o London Elementary
380 Elm Street
London, Ohio 43140


Thank you for your support!

Lesson of the Palm Tree

It is the nature of the strong heart,
that like the palm tree it strives ever
upwards when it is most burdened.

A Single Rose


A single rose can be my garden...
a single friend, my world.

Stop and Smell the Roses

It's August already. Boy, summer is just flying by. The kids will be returning to school in just a few short weeks.

Before you know it, we will be buried under mounds of snow and ice. We'll be lamenting over wind chill factors instead of heat indices.

The purpose of my post today is not to depress you, but to encourage you to stop long enough to smell the roses, literally. For many of us, it will be many months before we will again have the opportunity. Don't miss the moment. La

I will be joining the party at Outdoor Wednesdays

An Irish Blessing


An Irish Blessing

May God give you...
For every storm a rainbow,
for every tear a smile,
for every care a promise
and a blessing in each trial.

For every problem life sends,
a faithful friend to share,
for every sigh a sweet song
and an answer for each prayer.

Have a blessed weekend! La
