Tonight's picture was taken in September of 2007. Peter took Mattie to Boston to visit his family, and while there the cousins all got together and went on a boat ride on the Boston Harbor together. As you can see Mattie was hamming it up for the camera, and was having a good time being one of the kids. It is hard to believe that a year after this photo was taken Mattie was battling cancer.

We started off our day outside on the deck. All of us were outside having breakfast, even a bumble bee. Do you see him sitting on the flower of our ginger lily. This bee was with us throughout breakfast.
Indie was transfixed on this bee. She couldn't take her eyes off of it and really wanted to jump up at catch it!
The beauty of Indie! Indie LOVES outdoor time. She doesn't care what the weather is like, she is even on our deck when it is raining!
Meanwhile, things are all over the place as we get ready for Curefest, the national awareness event on the Washington Mall tomorrow. Mattie Miracle will have a booth at the event and we will get there with Sunny by 8:30am to set up. Mind you we take about a two mile walk with our things to get there, with Sunny in tow! It will be a full day, as we won't pack up there until 2pm.
I received this lovely photo from our friend Kristen today. She is starting her own non-profit featuring kindness stones. Her stones this month feature childhood cancer awareness messages. She drops these stone all over her area, and I would just love to know who will pick one of these beauties up! This particular stone features Mattie and the Foundation!
