That's me on the far left. Well, sort of :)
Anyways, I've joined the Junk Sistas because: 1) we all love junk. And 2), we all want to help out a wonderful family, headed by a very special matriarch, Deb of Talking Trash. Deb's daughter Jen gave birth to beautiful Bella Marie prematurely at 23 weeks. She's been in a neonatal ICU since she was born but is doing amazingly well. You can read all about Bella on Jen's blog, The Apiary. Debbie is a very special person with a huge heart, and so it is no surprise that her precious granddaughter, little Bella Marie, is quite a special baby.
Theresa of Garden Antqs Vintage and Amy of Trailer Trash formed the Junk Sistas to organize a fabulous raffle which will help pay for Bella's medical care.
All the Junk Sistas are donating special items for the raffle and there are going to be a LOT of wonderful things. Raffle tickets will be $10 each and will be going up for sale Friday, May 1st, here.
I will post photos of my contribution tomorrow, so stay tuned...

I wish that was a photo of all of us (I'd be the short squatty one on the right). It would mean that I got to meet you in person and could give you the biggest hug ever!
Love you,
Debbie
