It was Labor Day. I was very pregnant but had no idea that Alexander would be arriving the next day. (I still had about 3 weeks left.) I had just been given permission to get back on my feet after being bed-bound and medicated for pre-term labor and a few other things...

The kids wanted to set up a lemonade stand to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina. So we did... The neighbors got involved and we had a great time. We raised over $350 dollars that the children delivered to the local Red Cross chapter. The kids had a great day and were so proud of themselves. And rightly so!
