Rolling Dog Ranch Donated Goal Almost Met!!
I've been on a real roll, and so far have raised $355 for Rolling Dog Ranch Animal Sanctuary (a special place where disabled animals enjoy life on a Montana ranch) Mom and I hope to raise $500 for this well deserved animal sanctuary. If you know of anyone looking for a great gift for a child we would appreciate you sharing this post with them. $5.00 per book is being donated to Rolling Dog Ranch. This event ends April 30th. Thank you for your help!

Frankie's blog!
Frankie and I are starting this blog to communicate with school children who we may not get to actually visit in person. We hope it will be a way children can learn about Frankie and ask questions. Frankie and I love sharing our message with kids and we hope we can inspire many more kids by having this blog. We were inspired by a 7th grade class in Canada to start this blog. Karen, the teacher contacted me and told me the kids had watched Frankie's video. The kids are putting together their own compassion video's. They were so inspired by Frankie's story that they are doing raffles to raise money to donate to animals in need. Isn't that wonderful? So thank you, Karen and all the 7th graders. We look forward to answering your questions soon via our new blog that you inspired!!
We will keep you posted as we make progress and see where this will take us. In the meantime, remember, Always be positive and keep on rolling!
