This past Saturday, my daughter raised money to fight animal abuse, at an Arts and Crafts Festival.
London sold homemade candles and mini birdhouses and gave away copies
of a sweet little poster she drew last year.
Most importantly, she told many people, both children and adults about her cause,
Children Helping Animals In Need. And London was very passionate about where we
would be donating the money she raised---The Justice For Puppy Doe Fund.
I have to tell you, that the older London gets, the more in love with this child I become.
She never ceases to amaze me with her compassion and her iron-clad warrior spirit! She will tell you with complete confidence and without hesitation, how she feels about
animals and what she would do if she actually saw someone hurting an animal!
I never stop her in her anger, or try to change the words she uses...she is just expressing her deep
feelings and strong compassion. And honestly, we need to get angry..REAL angry, to begin to solve this world wide problem!!
The other day, London told me that a classmate asked her what "abused" meant.
She explained to this child that it meant " when someone hurts an animal in a REALLY bad way!."
If there is one thing that I know about my daughter, it is that she is a fighter. She fights for what she believes in, and tells others without fear of backlash!

My goal with London, is to continue to encourage her and fan the flames of her resolve.
I want her to know that with hard work, education and true spirit, one child, one cause, can
begin to change the way the world sees our animals.
I know my London believes that, and I know there are thousands of animal advocates that believe it, and I hope and pray that others, someday soon, will begin to believe it too.
