Gifts:

Many of you have very kindly asked what we would want as a gift.  So, our minds started wandering.  We thought about all the possibilities—diaper changing services at 2AM, free babysitting, day time nap time (for us, not the baby!), house cleaning services, hmmm….  Oh the possibilities are endless!

We feel one of the greatest gifts a person can receive  is education.  In lieu of gifts for us for the baby shower, we humbly and respectfully request that whatever resources you would like to use for us, please instead use them towards an organization of choice that will help not just one child but many children receive education.

Although it seems very enticing to receive gifts, we feel we have been tremendously blessed with the love of family and friends.

As much as we enjoy the great love you shower on us, there is also great happiness in helping someone else.  When that someone else can be children, it’s even more fun.  If you would like suggestions on places or organizations, please contact us.

We realize that our request might seem unusual to many.  But everyone that knows us knows that we often veer (willingly!) off the beaten path.  🙂

And if you would still like to offer a diaper change at 2AM, be careful because we may take you up on it!  😛
