Here is a link to the ASYMCA-Ar*med Services YMCA website:

http://www.asymca.org/index.ph...eration-kid-comfort/

They are supplying kits with everything included to make a photo quilt for a small child who's mother or father is deployed.

I submitted a request for a kit and will let you know more information as it comes in. What a nice idea, huh?

I was on that site yesterday from Fort Bragg, after reading about the program in the Sunday newspaper...As I understand it ..

Kids 5 and under are given a little quilt 6 and older are given a pillow at Fort Bragg. One of the photos must be of the deployed person.

A good program...

Just wanted to let you know that I haven't heard anything from OKC yet--I'm sure they got tons of requests for kits.

I'll post when I hear anything!
