Service Club 2015


Ricki was excited that in December she was able to meet her goal of donating over 1000 items to Primary Children's Hospital in 2015. Ricki has been so blessed by the service of so many! She has loved her stuffed animals that have given her comfort and each sweet blanket she has received has been like being given a hug in the hospital. She loves and cherishes each of them. Ricki has also has been so grateful for the many craft projects that have kept her mind occupied during her stays at the hospital.  

Recently,  while waiting in the waiting room we were watching a mother with some very cute and lively girls. A volunteer brought a cart of projects for the girls to chose from. The smile on Ricki's face was bigger than the little girls faces when they picked a bag that had markers and coloring pages of some disney princesses. They were some of the kits Ricki had organized and put together.  The little girls sat down and were kept busy the remaining of the time we were in the waiting room. Another time we were in the elevator and they had the cart filled with projects to deliver to patients and Ricki smiled when she saw more of her craft kits on the cart. 

What a sweet experience it has been to be giving back after we have received so much!
