$116!

This is Gracie...
(Before the Hannah Montana concert)

She is 9 years old. I've known her since the day she was born. I knew her when she was Micah's age and looked like this...

I am really, really proud of her these days. She recently took it upon herself to collect money for HIV+ children in Ethiopia. She told her class at school all about it and then collected money at school. She and her brother and a neighbor also had a lemonade stand and collected money. They've decided it should go to Ahope and they collected $116.00! Gracie has a big heart - she and her brother will do amazing things one day - I just know it. Thanks Gracie for being such a great kid - you are inspiring!
