Another email from Mel

intend to do a profile on all my volunteers soon with pics and all. On Friday I attended a brunch called "Woman for Change" which was pretty awesome. They gave me an opportunity to talk about Bosom Buddies and a fair amount of woman asked me for my details and seemed keen to get involved. I need to do my thank-you update to all of you who support us, so....
Big smoochy thanks to Bridgette in US for sending us another precious parcel for my babies, (5 cuddly soft blankies, 5 bunny rabbits, candy and bracelets for mom, little bodyvests/onesies for babes and a card for each mom)
Thanks to Pam Roberts and the ladies from Strand Rotary for 800 Huggies newborn nappies
As always thanks to Oumie (Mrs Theres Godfrey) who is my chief knitter and makes 30 beanies a week plus knits a jersey a day. She is 78!!
To Warren & Julie from Dischem in Somerset West, who sent us 5 boxes of odds and ends for BB (and Lee for the intro)
A second thanks to Lynne McKenzie who received 20 balls of wool from a friend and donated to BB
To Gawie, one of my volunteers husbands' who had a birthday and requested things for BB instead of gifts for himself (sure prompted by gorg wife Nadine!!)
To Melissa from Melissa's who sent us some yum snack bars for the mothers. (Oh boy was I tempted but no worry, stayed strong!)
And to all of you who buy us things from time to time. We are blessed by your kindness and can, in turn, bless the moms and babes.
Please don't forget to send us your 2nd hand newborn clothing and if you shop on-line for us....... Freedom Nighttime pads pls!
Pics to follow next week, I promise!
