{Halloween Spooktacular Blog Hop Day 2}

Trick -or- Treat…. Trick- or- Treat…. Trick- or- Treat on Halloween! Who loves Halloween?? ME ME ME! Hello and Welcome to day 2 of the annual Halloween Spooktacular Banneer Hop for Special Needs Children!  I am Uber excited to join with more than 36 talented crafters whom have each made one Halloween themed banners that will be donated to hang in the room of a medically-fragile child at Pediatric Specialty Care in Pennsylvania.  Our Fabulous Hop Hostess Ellen Card Monkey Jarvis works at PSC’s Bucks County site as Admissions Coordinator.  The banner hop starts at this very talented Lady!  So if you just happend to come to my blog and would love to see all of the creative banners made for these very special children be sure to hop on over to the Card Monkey here
These children and their families —and PSC’s staff will be thrilled to recieve the Halloween Banners, to help brighten the season when their friends and siblings will be out trick-or-treating. 

***I have a very special love for children and adults with disabilites.  I used to work at Danville (a living space and day training for adults with special needs)  I worked as the Manager for 5 years.  The job was my pride and joy.  When a person says ” I hate my job” I just didnt get it because I loved my job so much.  The blessings it brought to me and my families live was amazing.  To see them smile and get joy out of the simplist things, makes you want to become a better person.  I am so blessed to have found Ellen (Card Monkey) Jarvis and this wonderful cause.  It makes me so happy to know I am bringing a smile to a childs face on Halloween.

Here is some pics of my banner that I made.
