Same Sky

I am so excited about today’s giveaway.

When I first heard about Same Sky, I thought that the company sounded great. But when I got to really know what the brand is about and met a lot of the people involved, I completely fell in love.

When a young boy in St. George, Ontario was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor his doctor told his parents they should celebrate Christmas early this year. Their neighbours jumped right in to support them.

On Monday night, the sun set and downtown lit up like it were December. Every storefront decorated with Christmas cheer, the trees were lit with colourful bulbs. The sidewalks full of Santas, snowmen and reindeer.All of this was done for seven-year-old Evan Leversage who’s … Keep Reading!!!

Mother of Three Recieves Help from Strangers While in the ER with Her New Baby

When 27-year-old Kaylee Goemans received a call from her doctor that she needed to take her 6 week old son, Dominic, to the ER because of complications with an intestinal disorder, she rushed right in.

Wisdom from the year:

  • We have one chance at this life, better make it worthwhile.  Fear should never hold you back. We have no idea when we will be taken from this earth. What do you want to experience or teach people
