Brenda Lee!

I'm sitting here in my office and happened to look out my window.

Brenda Lee is walking the 'hood, hunting for change.

I couldn't help but snap a picture for you kids.

She's pretty amazing. I think she'd love to know she was "famous" in a blog.

If you are wondering who Brenda Lee is, you can check out my blog about her HERE.

I thought that was such a lovely story and a testament to the good nature of April and yourself.

I still have some change from my trip to America a few years ago in my 'Big Boy' money box. It's a shame I can't throw it 8000 miles for Brenda Lee!

matt: that is such a sweet comment and nearly made me tear up. Brenda Lee would LOVE your change and the sentiment behind it.

omyword: she's pretty special. I was so excited to be able to get the pic - especially since I'd just written about her!
