There’s some pretty amazing stuff going on at the moment.  The amazing, super-human, wears her pants over her trousers at all times Mammasaurus is supporting the Save The Children campaign to Build it for Babies and is driving the #blogitforbabies initiative.  Loads of other bloggers are offering their time, have written fantastic posts, donated their worldly goods and put their money where their mouth is buying bricks to build clinics that save lives.  All this is detailed over on blogitforbabies.org and it’s trying to make lives better in parts of the world where people are not as fortunate as we are, whatever we think.

Those of us in St Albans are planning to do our ‘bit’ on Tuesday 1st May.  Actually Mummy has persuaded the good people at the Noke Thistle Hotel (just off J21A of the M25 and J6 of the M1 – and very close to the A1 too!) to let us have their Marquee for the day.  From 10.45 you, your friends/colleagues/neighbours/random people dragged off the street, are invited to join us, and our very special guest, Mammasaurus,  for a day of making a difference…

At 11am, for a small donation, you’re invited to join in a Rock Choir session led by the inspirational Abigail Smith who’ll be teaching us a song (you’ll know it), complete with harmonies and moves!  Then it’ll be onto lunch, nattering and cake sale.  The ‘official’ #bakeitforbabies cakes will be on sale as will donations from other amazing blogger/bakers who will be creating their favourites for us to purchase.

Children are, of course, welcome all day.  Then from 3.30 there’ll be some dancing a la Justin Bieber for those who are up for it – including any older children who’ve finished school.   Full details, including the link to the Facebook page are here

You’re Beautiful is about finding the ‘wow-worthy’ things in life and celebrating them.  It’s also about supporting The Black Dog Tribe and doing #onepositivething supporting those of us with mental health issues, past or present.  This week I’ve deviated from stones and clouds to talk about a load of people doing what they can to help others, and if that isn’t just a teeny bit ‘wow-worthy’ I’m not quite sure what is.  Why don’t you come and join us on the day?
