Hi I wanted to update my profile so i actually have 2 stories on there instead of erasing the 1st i just added onto it! Thank for reding my page!

Hello, I am Mandy, I am 23 years old and a  mommy of 2 angels who I am desperate to make sure they have a CHRISTMAS like most other kids do! I can not imagine not being able to play Santa Clause the night of Christmas when they fall to sleep! I remember as child the joy and excitment i felt when i was waiting to fall asleep for santa to come and I want my babies to be able to feel the same way! Christmas Last year was so emmotional and I literally felt like I had failed as a parent. I did everything I could to make there christmas exciting to them since it was my daughters 1sr christmas I really felt like a failure when they woke up on christmas morning they had some things, the things was items that I had put up a few months before that they didnt play with and a few things I was able to get at the dollar store and they actually didnt even no what to do with the toys because they wasnt really for there age bc baby items are expensive alot of times. That afternoon we went to my moms in Minor Hill which is 2 hours away and the kids did get some things from them that they could enjoy,that did help alot but I still felt like they deserved a Christmas Morning w/Santa and then go to grandma's house w/there santa toys to show the family there!! I also no that Chistmas isnt all about toys and gifts,but the main reason is to celebrate Jesus's Birth and my kids will be taught that as they will also see the programs and plays at churches around christmas time.I believe that making sure our kids understand the true meaning of christmas is a GREAT THING TO DO! So that they will be able to celebrate what the gifts are for and why they get the gifts they get for christmas! I no my babies are only 3 and 2 but I am starting to teach them early in life the meaning of alot of things in life that they can understand 

But if there is anyone who can help me out with this or if you can give any advice on giving my babies a christmas morning PLEASE DO SO! ANY INFO IS BETTER THAN NOTHING! I also want to say my prayers are with all the other families going through this situation BCI no how much it hurts not being able to do for your babies what they deserve! I said last year that I would not stop looking for work until I found a job or literally gave out and Im still looking but there arent any jobs anywhere for anything if you dont have a college degree or if you have babies they are like sorry...but hopefully year 2010 will bring us all GREAT Times to come and our Economy will improve for the better for everyone the homeless,poor,average,and the wealthy! Im also hoping to see the ones who are wealthy and who can afford to help families as mine and many other families at this Special Time of the year actually helping as much as possible to make our world a better,loving,caring,joyful,place to live in!!

Thank You to Everyone who has read my Story!

God Bless & Happy Holidays To ALL

and please only serious people no jokes or pranks or people saying rude things. everyone needs help in life at 1 time or another!

 Hayden Carter and Abbagail Loise they are my world, my life, my soul! We are in a bind now and really need some help getting on our feet! I was diagnosed with R.A and Lupus about a year ago and two months ago I found out that my cervical cancer has came back and they will have to do more serious treatments this time....being 23 and still so young maybe its easier keeping it together and keeping a hold on my life for my kids but its getting very hard and when i look at my babies and they are looking at me as for i am the 1 person that they look and turn to for anything and everything in life they no nothing else but that..i fund myself feeling ashamed at times for not being able to provide everything i want for them and to take them to the park to play,go to a disney movie and things like that. They only place they get to go is to the grocery when we have a way and to my dr appt or theres if we have a ride to go! WHAT I WANT IN LIFE AND WHY I NEED A CAR SO BAD..I want for me to be able to wake up each morning and drink a cup of coffee then wake my babies up w a good morning kiss and feed them breakfast and get them ready bc they would go to daycare with other kids, and I would be off to work and school some days work half and go to school half! then i would go pick them up and we would go by the park or something for family time together then we would head home for supper and baths and get all tucked in together!!! Then be ready for the next day of life that God brings us! That is what i want for my family now we arent able to go anywhere..i am not able to work so we have no income bc we have no vehichle the world is tough these days but if we all work together for each other we will make a differece!

May I say I am very greatful to come across this web site! Before I signed up I read about others who I can identify with and I didnt feel so alone.  I like so many others need help but I hate to ask because I have so much pride, its the way I was raised.  I am disabled, suffering from severe depression, bipolor plus I need surgery on my neck and back.  I am Christian and pray every day. My life has been a roller coaster of good and bad. I am currently trying to get my social security disability and was denied but I appealed the decision because I have all my hospitalizations documented and I know that Social Security is going broke according to the national news.  Im living on a prayer and with that said I hired a social security attorney who really hasnt done anything except tell me this could take years.  So I wrote to my congressman then to my senator of my state and its working at least I am getting letters from their offices that are very encouraging. I have hope today but tomarrow I may be crying. I appreciate all that have contributed to this web site because reading others problems I dont feel so alone. I would appreciate any prayers on my behalf. Thats all I ask for. Thank you and God bless you all

About Single Mom of 4

I AM  A 32 YEAR OLD SINGLE MOTHER OF 4 CHILDREN. 13,11,9,4 YEARS OLD. We were in a car accident in March of this year. Since then I have been through 4 surgeries. Because I have not been back to work, it has been really hard to make ends meet.  A lot of organizations want you to come in person to sign up for the programs for Christmas, and I explained to them I had just gotten out of surgery and was unable to drive, On top of all of this I am being evicted from  my home.  I tried to explain my situation to the judge at the eviction hearing, but he said I still had to leave. I have until this Monday to move out. I have listed everything that I worked for in my life on craiglist to sell so that I can get some money to move to a motel, at least we will have a place to live for Christmas.  I don’t know what to do now, I am praying for a  miracle. All of this before Christmas. And it hurts so bad that my children are going through this. I explained it to my older children about not being able to have Christmas and they were okay, and I overheard them talking to one another saying this doesn’t feel like Christmas. I just went to  the bathroom after they went to sleep and cried and prayed. The sad thing was that my 9 and my 4 year old still believes in Santa Claus and are really excited about Christmas. My 4 year old calls everything about Christmas HoHo. He says momma why we don’t have a hoho tree? I said Santa has other trees to deliver just like he has to deliver other kids presents. He just hasn’t gotten to us, I just don’t have the heart to tell them the truth. We went to Walgreens in our neighborhood and there was a Santa that you could take a picture with, but it cost money. He said momma can I have me and hoho picture, I said no and just said we have to come back, I am in a hurry. He cried but  how do you explain to a four year old that you don’t have $5.00 for him to take a picture? Anyway I am sorry to ramble on , but this actually makes me feel so much better when I am able to get things out of my head. I really need toys for my children for Christmas
