What astonishing gestures of compassion, hope and joy you've shown us. The vastness of your heart in organizing the auction touches me, as does the creativity of each and every one of the artists.

Rebecca dear,
This is a gallery of love, compassion and soulsong. It's beauty emanates far and wide. With your skilled, artists hands, you have created a poetic masterpiece, so that the pneuma of these generous women and yourself blend together in a fine smoky mist flowing heavenward. Spelled out in Letters Bold upon that celestial wind are the words: Remember the Children of Oaxaca.
Their Joy will be complete when others give from the heart to such a worthy cause ~ the opportunity for a child to have an education. A beautiful, Joyful post from a beautiful heart.
xoxoxo,
Noelle
