CNN Video on Noah
Thank you so much. It was nice to see the video. I also noticed that the family requested for people to stop sending cards at this point. I can totally understand how they want to spend their last ...

Giving your brother the gift of time is way more special than anything tangible. These were both great giving days!

Today has flown by. There was so much to do, but I was able to accomplish everything on my "to do" list and crossed a few things off my list for tomorrow as well. Jeff worked from home today, which is always nice. I enjoy having him around. We actually have plans to spend some extra time together this evening, so I'm going to finish up here and get back to him.

It seems like time just passes faster as each day brings us closer to this holiday season. There's so much to do and not enough hours in the day. I'm typing this post at midnight...a time when I'm typically already in dreamland. I'll make up for the lack of proper sleep sometime.
Gave:
1. Taught my family a new game and then played with them for more than an hour.

We spent a lot of time working on holiday crafts again today. I believe we're finally finished. Unless I get another idea.... It was great to spend the time with my children. We had some really interesting conversations while working together.
Elijah had an intense seizure this evening. He hasn't had one like this in several weeks. It was frightening. He's been ok for the remainder of the evening, except for one other small seizure just before going to sleep.

Enjoy your 29 Days and don't forget to share some stories to help inspire others. If you need help posting in your Personal Giving Blog, follow these directions.
Help Us Grow: Please help spread the word. We're striving to reach our goal of 29,000 committed givers, and you can help: Send this Invitation to friends, write about the challenge and include a badge or our video on your website, blog, facebook, or myspace page.
The book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life - authored by 29 Gifts founder Cami Walker is now in stores. You can also buy through Amazon.
Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
P.S. Don't miss our handy 29-Day Giving Calendar or our cute Gift Note to accompany your gifts.
