Love For Ashley

First, I want to thank those who donated money to Ashley's Liver Transplant Fund with the American Liver Foundation in honor of Ashley's birthday. We received four checks totaling $115 that I will be mailing to Ashley's liver transplant fund on Tuesday. Thanks to the Johnson family, the Koehne Family, the Stuart Family and the Blume family, your generous donation is very much appreciated.

Ashley also received some cool shirts and homemade jewelry too. In other words, Miss Ashley was spoiled.

The judges are older girls that were part of the Studio 5D Dance Company . I am praying that it goes well and all of the girls have a blast. So far all those invited will be attending so it's going to a room full of dancing screaming girls. I must be crazy...crazy in love with my daughter. This afternoon, I asked Ashley what she wanted for her birthday since her friends were asking what she likes. Right now, Ashley isn't into any one thing except dance. Today, as we were buying her party decorations, Ashley told me that she really wants someone to help her excel in dance, to help her with her leaps and turns. Ash has decided that sin...
