We have been offered the opportunity to participate in a charity event with BabySwags.com and Six Flags Great America. As a special Mother's Day celebration entitled "Stars for a Day, Moms for a Lifetime", 60 women and children who are victims of domestic violence will be receiving baskets similar to those sent out to celebrities. Sew Cute by Me Designs will be providing special pillows and blankets for these baskets. As a volunteer at a local center specializing in counseling for victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse, I am particularly excited about this event! I am looking forward to making these women and children feel as special as possible on this day, and I feel blessed to be able to participate in this event.
