Ever since I first saw @phoenixwren post about sending cards to a special needs girl in Canada I have been excited to do it. The very thought of encouraging someone starts the joy to well up and the smile to burst forth.
So today was the day for this to happen, and thankfully I remembered a special card I purchased last trip to South Florida. These cards are 3D and they stand alone and actually swing!! So indeed I had the perfect card to send to my new friend Kaitlin Coghlin.
I also wanted to include something special, and found a beautiful handcrafted bookmark I bought while in Honduras last year. Amazing how everything came together!! Thank the Lord!!
Kaitlin is a special needs girl who's turning 17 this summer, so there is time for all to get a card in the mail. This amazing young girl could use encouragement, and because of Steemit, she can receive World Wide encouragement!!
Her story is that her one year older sister is graduating High School this year, and went through all the things associated with graduation. Because of her special needs Kaitlin needs to go to school until she is 21. When told she wouldn't graduate this coming spring, her response was tear jerking. She dejectedly said, "It's because I don't have friends, isn't it." This makes me sad every time I read of it, she feels she has no friends.
So you see the need!! Lets all be her friend!!
Here is the address...
Kaitlin Coghlin
267 Brantwood Park Road
Brantford, Ontario
Canada

I love the card. It's so beautiful and Kaitlin will love it.
I am totally in and tomorrow I will go look for a card so that I can send it to her. I love what you are doing and so grateful that you shared this with us so that we can all make Kaitlins day special.
I love that bookmark. Doesn't God work in miraculous ways. He already knew what that bookmark will be used for within a year. Wow. Love God and His ways.
That reminds me that I also have some bracelets from El Salvador that I bought. I think she will like it and it will almost match your bookmark.
Hugs.xoxo

Teenagers can be so cruel! Adults too when it comes to special needs. This card and bookmark will make her feel so special, just like she is. We are all God's children and as such we all have something valuable to contribute to this world. Thanks for posting this Papa Bear!
