This family has really already inspired me and given me a great idea. I had the extra clothes and happened to see the mom at the school when I was signing DD up for Kindergarten and she was thrilled to get them. So when I went in to sign DD up, I asked the nurse that if she ever has any other kids that need clothes to let me kow, I always have lots or know where I can get them from! It would be from her, but I would bring her a bag of whatever she needs. Since I am at bag sales and thrift stores all of the time for Ebay I can always grab a couple of extra things to stock up on.

Now I just hope she calls. I usually freecycle these sort of things, but if she knows the kids are coming to school with clothes that are too small I think they would do more good going to kids who really need them.

And if the little boy can have a good time at our house and DS will enjoy the playdate then that's good for me.

It still hurts my feelings that no one came to his party last year. I could not imagine. I can see why people can't get past the outside, because it's more of an effort for me than I thought it should be.
