a print for Joey

 Hello everyone!
Today I'm putting a special print in my shop. All the proceeds from each sale of this print will go to Joseph Bacon, a 5 year old boy who is fighting Leukemia, to aid his family with medical bills. He was diagnosed on September 23rd, 2010 at the age of 4.
 To learn more about the Bacon family, visit the Bacon Family Blog or J&K's Toy Box page, where you can buy wristbands and ornaments painted by Joey and his sister Katherine. You can also follow Joey's story here on facebook.
Reading the Bacon family's blog is so inspiring to me. Joey, his sister Katherine, mom Angie, and dad Jon are so positive, brave, and filled with love and support for each other. Angie and Jon do so much to make every day fun for Joey.
 Joey is a beautiful little boy who loves so many things, including cowboy attire (he is a boy after my own heart!), so I  thought this would be a good painting for his print.
8x10 "Things of Love" print can be purchased here.
What are some of your "things of love"?
I hope you are all having a beautiful end-of-January!
Love,
Amanda
