February 14th. Valentine’s Day.
1 project.
1 hospital.
8 balloons.
24 stuffed animals.
7 children.
30 valentines.
Many smiles.
And one very happy man.
The Lovely Heart Project is done. We did it! It was a beautiful day – filled with rain and snow – but lovely nonetheless. We headed off to St. Charles medical Center and arrived at 1 o’clock. Not on the dot at all. We were late. But we did get there. And The Lovely Heart Project did happen! We ran to the hospital, through the snow, pulling balloons and carrying a box filled with stuffed animals. Went in through the special revolving door. Talked to a very amusing man who directed us to our destination (whom we later had the pleasure of making very happy by leaving him a much wished for balloon and a valentine). Made our way to the fifth floor. Called the pediatric unit. And did it. Oh joy, we did it. So many smiles given. So many received. Oh joy. So many amazing things that took place. Giving the stuffed animals. Accidentally going into the employees elevator. Handing out valentines to random people. It was lovely. Oh joy. The Lovely Heart Project. We did it.
The Lovely Heart Project.
We
did
it.
