It's been a week now since we said goodbye to Kallie. Last Friday started with a Kallie Celebration at Alex's school. The entire 4th grade class released pink balloons in her honor. Her celebration of life ceremony was held later in the afternoon - it was the saddest and yet most beautiful service I've ever attended. Standing room only! It was just incredible to see how one little 10-yr old girl could have such an impact on so many other lives.
Alex and I finally had the great privilege of meeting Kallie's mom in person. Alex gave her a big hug and handed her an envelope with all the money we raised to date. She was so touched and expressed how grateful she was for our support. So THANK YOU to everyone who helped chip in towards this cause. It really did make a difference. <3
