If I made a laundry list of things that I wanted for my birthday, besides the obvious choices, I doubt any of it would carry that much weight. I mean, what do I really need?
Given the influx of bad luck, drama, and not-so-happy times our family has been weathering the past few weeks and months, now is the time to negate all of that bad energy. In fact, the husband and I were talking about how we needed to find ways to give back to our community. So, just in time for my birthday tomorrow, I will be doing some Do Goodery in NYC with some fellow bloggers.
77kids, together with the fabulous TheMotherhood.com have tapped seven bloggers in each of the 11 participating cities (77 peeps altogether!) to do random acts of kindness in our communities on July 14; and I’m so thrilled to be a part of the vibrant NYC team. It sounds like the other teams have a number of truly wonderful acts of kindness lined up. Our team is hammering out the last details, but once we’re all set, I’m sure I will be tweeting as we go!
Who is this 77kids I keep mentioning? In case you aren’t familiar, be sure to remember the name, because you will hear more about them soon! 77kids is American Eagle’s new baby: it’s their baby, toddler and youth division that evokes the same fun, modern, casual and cool style, but for the smaller set. 77kids, which is about to debut a handful of retail locations, seems like they’re all about following through with their do good philosophy.
Do Goodery on my birthday? Happy, indeed!
Disclosure: I will be receiving a stipend for my participation in this campaign.
