Teddy Bear Drive Update!!
WOW!!
This is what 1/2 way looks like!! Big thanks to friends and family near and far for being a part of our teddy bear and toy drive!
When I got to the Whitt house on Thursday night, Mimi handed me more bags of toys. Her friend Sue found some great stuffed animals from the Kohl's Cares collection. (this is in no way an advertisement for Kohls). And I had gotten a shipment of books from another of her friends, Caryl, via Amazon as well. Plus, Mimi had picked up a few more on top of what she and Aunt Ashley had already contributed (TONS!!).
Ollie and I came home from a weekend at Mimi's to a box full of toys from our neighbors! Even though we could not attend the block party, they went out of their way to help us out. THANK YOU!
As I was finishing up this post, Taylor came home from a weekend in Louisville with our amazing friends and mentors and our total is now 130! (Thanks Antonio and Nathalie!)
We will be taking the toys to Mott on October 22nd, the day of Ollie's follow-up MRI. Please reach out if you are looking for a way to get items here, we have shipping addresses and alternate drop off spots as well. We can even do some pick ups where possible!

We love you all!
Taylor, Katie and Ollie
