Emily has been here encouraging me every day. She is an American mom living in London. I really like Emily! She leaves very nice comments here almost every day. Today I found out that a little girl in Emily’s son’s class is very sick. I don’t read Emily’s blog, but YOU can read about this little girl there. So…
Today I made a difference by making a card for this little girl. Her name is Julie. I also wrote her a very long letter. Emily said she would like to hear from someone who lives so far away who is close to her age. I wrote about how it is for me to be an American student and young girl, my favorites- foods, hobbies and colors, and the sports I enjoy (like Tae Kwon- Do). Today, my mom and I emailed Emily my letter so she could take it to Julie fast. We will mail the card tomorrow!

I am really proud of you I think what you are doing is so important.
I have continued to find this an inspiring site! I have also continued to enjoy doing little things that make a difference. Today it was transferring a gym membership to a friend who will really appreciate it. It’s amazing how the little things can truly have a positive effect on others.
Thank you so, so much!! She is such a sweet little girl, and I know she will love your letter.
Aw, Laura. This just made me cry. You have a lovely, warm heart.
Fantastic, Laura! This will definitely help Julie feel better.
