Tonight's picture was taken in November of 2005. Mattie was three years old and that day we took him to Great Falls. If you look closely, you can see the falls behind them. Mattie loved being outside and having an adventure. Whenever we take Sunny to the park now, I think of these Mattie moments in time. Mattie would have loved Sunny and something tells me they would have been great pals.
Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.
- Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 47,355,836
- Number of people who died from the virus: 766,646
I was all over the place today! Including Alexandria, VA, to bring our mass mailing for the Foundation to our post office. That post office house's our Mattie Miracle mailbox. It is a thirty minute drive each way for me to get there, but it is worth it. The people who work there look after the Foundation's mail and I wouldn't dream of leaving them. When they saw me come in carrying 500 envelopes today, they all ran to help me. Including customers. When they picked up what I was carrying they said.... how did you carry this alone? Then they told me that I still have it! Meaning incredible strength, which made me laugh!
It was one of those glorious fall weather days and I felt we all needed to have lunch outside in the sun. We weren't there long, but I believe it is important to capture these special moments.
I am headed to Los Angeles tomorrow morning. So the next time you hear from me, I will hopefully be writing from there.
