Week 40

Paige and I were talking about all the wonderful things she has done with all her friends by paying it forward. She gladly told me them with a cute little grin and a sparkle in her eye. Olivia and Reese (my girls) sat back and listened to all of Paige’s opportunities and wanted to do the same. How great is this! Thanks Paige…xo.

Today is February 10th and Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. I told Paige that I have the opportunity to make people smile every day. She looked at me puzzled and asked, “how”? I told her that I am a nurse for many Long Term Care homes who have many wonderful people live in them. I told her of a man named Jack who once earned medals by helping us save our country and is now living with his wife in one of our villages. I also told her of all the special caregivers that care for people like Jack and his wife by cooking meals, taking them shopping and even take them on special trips. I then asked her if she would like to pay it forward by giving “candy grams” to all our residents and caregivers at our villages for Valentine’s Day. Paige thought this was a great idea and then the fun began….HA! Paige, Olivia and Reese we so excited to put together these candy grams. I have to admit they enjoyed a few treats of their own as we made over 50 candy grams. Way to go girls!!

Thanks for a great day Paige!! All our residents and caregivers are thankful for you and your amazing heart…xxoo.
