Tonight's picture was taken in November of 2003. Mattie was a year and a half old and we took him to a petting zoo in Virginia. As you can see Mattie was absolutely fascinated by the animals!

Mattie Miracle’s Candy Drive is now closed! We thank all of our supporters for making this Drive a success! We had a final sorting session today and our final count is 70 filled bins of candy! Deliveries start on Monday!
Special thanks to today’s sorters:
Catherine Canterbury
Sara Catherine Canterbury
Peggy Elkind
Abby Doane
Mary Doane
Michael Doane
Helen Kelly
Maria Van Horn
Debbie Keefe
Anais
Kathleen
This is what the garage looks like.... filled with bins!!! While we finished sorting a ton of candy today inside, Peter spent a good portion of the day outside (mind you it feels like 20 degrees outside today) reorganizing bins in rows, so that our deliveries next week will go more smoothly! Each row represents a day of the week and its delivery.
Our friend Catherine and her daughter, Sara Catherine, joined us later in the day to finish up with sorting and clean up. Mattie and Sara Catherine went to preschool together.
At the end of the sorting session, we had a drop off of two boxes of candy from Silver Spring, MD. Erickson and Hong Orthodontics were new contributors to our Drive this year, and so happy to have met Monica DeLeon, the receptionist in the office. Monica is delightful and truly wants to support Mattie Miracle. It was lovely of her to personally drive the candy to Alexandria today!!
