I have probably had over 2500 babies and can almost tell you all of their names.

Even when he was in the 8th grade I was worried about him and remember that he and his family were very challenged with finances. I remember buying his 8th grade T-shirt and other things so he could have something new.

please donate if you can

share if you can't

thank you
