Thank You

WOW! It took me several days to come off the high from the feeling we created in that room on Wednesday! Thank you so much for coming out and sharing your positivity, love and support. Maddie's Mark is $1,400 stronger thanks to your generosity. Our little podcast is stronger as well. Our mission will be to highlight strong, successful people who will inspire us all to focus on our own definition of success.

I've created a Flickr photo album of the official red carpet pictures for you to enjoy, save and share. Hover over the top picture and you can click through the all.

Thank you again to Nicole Nero  for capturing this evening. You are an amazing, beautiful, kind soul. Thank you to Jeffery and Paula at Glennpeter Jewelers for being such a wonderful host and providing a lovely venue. You are true gems in the community. Thank you to Madeline Musto for continuing to be a force in the community through your caring family and charity. Finally, and again, thank you to all of you who came out to show your support. We are working on publishing the podcast we recorded at the event. More to come on that very soon!

Who My Podcast Launch Will Benefit

Madeline Musto

 This beautiful girl is Madeline Musto. Madeline was a vibrant little 5-year-old girl who was taken from us way too soon by an inoperable brain stem tumor. Maddie was known for her compassion and love and ability to make all friends get along. Listening to her mom talk about her sweet child warms my heart. I never met Maddie but her mother and I would come together last year like it was meant to be. I knew then- that I wanted to find a way to help her charity.

Maddie's Mark provides "Best Day Evers" to seriously ill children. Madeline's family experienced such compassion in the short time they had before she passed that they knew they wanted to give back in the same way they received.

The beautiful thing about my podcast launch party is that Glennpeter Jewelers is so generously hosting my event with the only request that all the drink proceeds and silent auction proceeds go to a charity. I love this idea and knew immediately that it must go to Maddie's Mark.

Glennpeter has a wonderful way of highlighting the charities that receive help. They send you home with a kit to decorate a ceramic tile, you bring it back to them and they fire it and display it prominently in their store.

My daughter and I decided to take Maddie's logo of a butterfly and place it on a pretty flower. We felt so much pressure to do a good job on behalf of our charity. We second guessed our color choices and worried that we made the light colors too dark and that the dark colors wouldn't be dark enough. 

In the end we hope we did a nice job. We won't know what the finished product will look like until the night of the event. We hope you will be there with us to see our creation in honor of Maddie.

Our tile will be among some amazing charities that were supported by equally amazing people who wanted to make a difference in their community. Your support for this launch party is truly going to make a difference. I can't wait to see our tile on this wall. It will be such an honor.
