Hi! I just wanted to drop...Ava and Ava's Mommy~<br />Hi! I just wanted to drop you a note in regards to your blog about your experience at the 'When I Grow Up...' event. My name is Kim Kaufman and I am one of the founder's of Angels for Hearts the Non Profit that orgainzed the party for you, we had some big help from the Children's Miracle Network at UC Davis Children's Hospital to make the day extra special. I can't tell you how much it makes my heart smile that you has such a fun day and took the time to have your mommy help you to write about the party. I founded Angels for Hearts with my parents Patti and Curt 2 years ago. I am also a heart patient I may be an adult but in my parents eyes I will always be their child. I founded Angels for Hearts and came up with the idea after spending a lot of time in the hospital myself. I know that it is really hard to be in and out of the hospital especially when you are a kid like yourself. I know that when you are in the hospital there is no normal what so ever and that is hard. I founded Angels for Hearts in an attempt to help try to bring some sense of normalcy back to girls and boys your age (ages 0-16)while you are in the hospital. We came up with the idea of the party 'When I Grow Up...' as a way to show that all kids dream about what they want to be when they grow up. Reading your story about how much fun you (and your brother) had at the party brought happy tears to my eyes, I knew when I read what your mommy wrote that Angels for Hearts did what we set out to do to give the heart kids a day to just be a kid. Thank you so much for coming to the party, I remember meeting you when you checked in becasue I loved your cool pink glasses. I was hoping if it is ok with your mommy that she could send me some pictures of you from that day we are in the process of posting the pictures from the party on our website and we would love to put your picture if it is ok with your mommy on our website page. Please feel free to check out our website www.angelsforhearts.org. If your mommy says it is ok she can email them to me (actually to my brother Danny) at: danny@angelsforhearts.org<br /><br />We just happend to stumble across this blog when my mom was checking our website and found out the nice blog you wrote, thank you coming to the party and can't wait to see you this Christmas and we already have plans for 'When I Grow Up...' 2010 so see you there.<br /><br />Much love and hugs,<br />Kimberly Kaufman.
