26 acts continue

hi peeps. i don't know about you, but i am so ready for a friday. this week has been grueling. it really feels like friday has taken longer than it should to get here. i am happy that it has finally showed up.

here is an update on our 26 acts...

+++ ann emailed me today with her update..."Anne Marie Murphy was a special education teacher at Sandy Hook Elementary who died shielding the children in her classroom beneath her. She loved the arts, outdoors walks and most of all, her family. She was planning a gathering at her home on Christmas day for 37 people. Her family asked that donations in her honor be made to Autism Speaks, so my family sent a donation to this organization. We also sent notes to the special education teachers who lead the preschool at our elementary school (the preschool that both Natalie and Dominic attended). Anne Marie Murphy was buried today; we will light a candle for her."

+++ marcie emailed me with her update..."my plan is to donate children's books (early readers specifically for 1st grade age children like Victoria Soto's class) to the Tacoma Library"
