To celebrate my 80th birthday I invited 15 women for a festive evening. Instead of them buying gifts for me I asked each one to bring an educational toy for 1-5 year old's. Everyone loved the shopping and the idea of helping to educate a child .
I brought the toys out to the Guadalupe center, toured the center and the wonderful staff surprised me with a birthday card with little hand and foot prints and the names of all the little ones thanking me. I could not have asked for a more beautiful gift.
