Nie Nie Auction: We are so blessed

I think about how hard we try to get healthy, how much work it is. And then I read about this family, a mom and dad with kids, just like me, who were in a terrible accident, and how it all changed for them in a split second.  Steph is a Mommy blogger, like me (my Mommy blog, One Day at a Time is here) I am blessed to be healthy and trying hard with my daughter. There are numerous auctions going off to raise money for the couple, and I want to join in.

I an honored to be able to offer up for bid this an amazing yellow Dooney and Bourke woven tote with leather trim. it is brand new, and comes with 3 cool accessories, a cosmetics case, a key fob, and i.d. case. It's retail value is $360.00 It's awesome, and the sunny yellow color is to me the color of hope! Of happiness and sunshine, prayers and love.  I love, love, love this bag- it was given to me as a gift, and I've been saving it "for special". What could be more special than this?   It has never been used- it's still in the gift bag it came in. Please open up your hearts and wallets to help out this amazing couple. You can read more about Steph and Christian HERE, on CJANE, Steph's sisters blog. More info is also on the NIE NIE diologes.

The auction will start with an opening bid of $25.00. The auction ends on my birthday- Spetember 7th! Here's how it'll work- the winner will pay via Steph and Christians paypal account, then e-mail a copy of the receipt, and I'll send the bag on it's way! Place your bids on the comment section. Thanks for looking, and hopefully bidding.

FROM ALLY:

My brother and I both gave this bag to our Mom for Mother's Day. (our Dad helped)  I really want to help out another kid's Mom.  We talked about what we could auction off- we wanted it to be special so that it would mean something to us. I will also include some 5 hand decorated notecards with envelopes that I make myself with the bag. Please help this family.

I can't afford to bid on something this expensive, but I did purchase two more affordable items where the profits from the sale are going to this family. I wanted to commend you for your big heart in helping this family. This world needs more people like you!!

Thanks so much!!
