109!!

In a world full of people placing importance on some of the most ridiculous things, I find is so heartening and such a blessing to see how many people came and left a post for a worthy cause.  I sat here this evening and watched the comments reach 109.  I am floored. 

I have to thank Mary from Owlhaven and Chris from Notes From the Trenches for sending over their amazing readers. Not to mention all the other readers who posted the video today and linked here.  My computer was all, “Ohmanwhereareallthesepeoplecomingfrom?” and I simply got nothing accomplished in my house today as I read comment after comment.

My goal was to donate $300 to the Foundation. I could have just written a check and mailed it, nuff said.  But I also wanted people to come and see the video and learn from it.  So, that is why I pledged per comment.  The video speaks for itself.  If you click on it and watch it, you cannot help but be moved by it and want to:

A) Get your kids in a safe carseat

B) Do something to spread the word

So, I tried to do both.  I am sure I accomplished A), and I think B) took on a life of its own.

I figured when I started this that I would generate around 30 comments.  Financially, I figured we could afford 100 comments.  Right now, at 10pm there are 109, so tomorrow when I write my bills, I will also be writing a check to the Kyle David Miller Foundation for $327. I worked Christmas Day night, and this is where I chose to spend that money I earned.

So, thanks to everyone!  You are now armed with carseat knowledge!

Thank you to the Millers for sharing their precious son with us.

**Through the night the comments continued!  There are 180 as of this morning!  So, in honor of those comments still coming in, next month I will match the check I am sending today!
