In honor of Wyatt, I'm requesting all of you to do a random act of kindness between now and November 18th. Friends of ours who lost their daughter came up with this idea and I love it. It will be a wonderful tribute to Wyatt. I believe his spirit lives on through us. Think of him there with you and have fun. Feel free to post messages. I love to hear from all of you.
