Nine-year-old Jordan Holmes-Heard certainly had no trouble putting her difficulties aside. Jordan, who has battled sickle-cell anemia since being diagnosed with it when she was two months old, wore an ear-to-ear grin as she made her way through the store. But her mother, Phala, confided that her daughter had been on cloud nine long before buying her first toy.
"She'll go to sleep with that smile on her face, especially because Tim kissed her on her cheek and she has this extreme crush on him," said Phala. "She probably won't wash that side of her face."
Did we need a reason to love Huddy more?

No! Tim is amazing! I love it when these guys do charity events. Especaially on their own.

This is so great, I wish we heard more about the good guys in baseball like him on the news instead of the cheaters.

Huddy and the rest of the boys need to cut that out. My daddy and grandfather both died from cancer brought on by tabacoo use. The kicker is they both had quit. Apparently the toxins never really leave your body. My papa was 16 yrs clean and my daddy was 9 yrs.
My daddy died 3 months before the birth of my brother's first child. He said he wanted to live to see the baby but he didn't make it.
It's easier said than done when it comes to kicking the habit but they need to at least try.

Last year, B and I counted the boys we saw using some sort of tobacco, and it was a crazy-high number – something like 21 of the 25-man roster. They do so much for cancer awareness and helping kids with cancer, yet do something every day that can cause cancer in themselves… it breaks my heart a little.

Ok, so I agree with Friend #3 and think that is a "C'mere you!" hand. What I love is that I told you that before you revealed it was my twin. In a blind study it has been proven true. We have twin brains. Also my caption for this pic? "Hold me close young tiny closer" :)

CAB, I have to be careful about what I choose to post. ;)
Molly, blind study. You have the same brain. There isn't even a brown boy in this picture! :D <3
