My heart is full of joy while I type. This morning when I walked into work I was greeted by this beautiful sight.
It took a moment to sink in what all these hats hanging from the celing tiles meant. I stood in awe of the hats hanging from the line in my office, when I realized that they were all collected for my Mom and hung up to show support and love.
I immediatley started to cry, took this picture and then called this lady... the mastermind.
She really REALLY didn't want me to take this picture. But she is the most generous and wonderful person I have ever met.... serriously this woman thinks of everything. She even convinced me to bring my camera in a very sneaky way because she knew I would want to take pictures. It was my own fault that I forgot my CF card and will have to take the pictures tomorrow. When she arrived I gave her a big hug and shortly after Mindy walked in with another bag of 20 hats or so. I sent the room shot picture to my Mom and talked to her on the phone and then Mindy and I preceeded to hang the remaining hats up, so currently there are 60 hats hanging from the ceiling in our office space.
I sent out a big thank you e-mail and asked the people who donated the hats to come and pick one out to wear to show to Mom.
Here's Patsy with her cow print hat.
And Julie with the Elmer Fudd inspired hat...
I seriously have the best co-workers in the world.
There are SO many hats and mom only has one head, so we will be donating a portion of them to Hats Off For Cancer. We're doing a hat drive through the end of the week to send as many as we can! More pictures to come!
