It's All About Pink


As we're sure you already know, we just LOVE pink (if you're unsure about this, just check out the blog background...okay, now that we're on the same page...) and this month, the pink reminds of us of a very important cause: Breast Cancer Awareness.  We don't need any excuse to wear pink, play with pink blankets, pink pacifiers, a pink ExerSaucer, pink toys...so this month every time we see pink we're going to think of these very special people we know and love who have battled breast-cancer.  This post is a tribute to these SUPERWOMEN who were strong and courageous during tough battles with cancer.  We love you and think you are the BRAVEST women we know.  

Felicity: Here I am with my great-aunt Cindy.  She is so much fun and wish we lived closer to her.  We love you a whole bunch Cindy and think you are a super-duper woman!  
This is Scarlett.  She is our Grandpa Butcher's cousin and we get to see her when we go to the farm.  Scarlett says she's not really a "baby person," but we think that we maybe softened her up a bit when we saw her over the 4th of July (we can be very convincing!).  She was a true warrior in her fight against cancer and we think she is just amazing!
And finally, this is our Great-Grandma Butcher.  We can't say enough about how wonderful she is!  She is strong, loving, caring, and just an all-around terrific grandma.  She's been through so much and we love her and think she is one strong cookie! Hugs and Kisses to our Great-Grandma B.!!
Throughout this month, we want to remind you to salute, hug, love, and generally appreciate all of the amazing women in your lives who have battled this nasty disease.  We are so grateful that Cindy, Scarlett, and Great-Grandma Butcher are here to share lots more wonderful times with us.  And to end our special tribute to you, we'd like to share a picture of our favorite pink outfit that we've worn so far.  Who can resist the polka dots? 
Remember, October is all about pink!  If you have a breast cancer survivor/warrior in your life, tell us about her in the comments.  Let's celebrate strong women!
