Big Brothers Big Sisters

Unfortunately for me, I have a HUGE heart. I cry at doggies on TV. I cry if I hear about a little kid without a friend or if I see a commercial that is sad - even if it's about a stupid car. Something is seriously wrong with me. However, there are times when that yearning for wanting to make everyone happy and thinking that the world really can be a good place to live comes in handy. I joined BBBS. It stands for Big Brothers and Bog Sisters. It is the most positive organization and I know first hand.

My little and I were matched over two years ago. I love her like she is my own. I have no children and I needed to make a difference. She is the only girl in her family and she has 3 brothers. Her mother is a very good mother, but she, like all us of, doesn't have enough time to be able to give all the attention that her only daughter needs. That's why I admire her so much. Instead of being selfish, she did what she knew was best. My little is 15 and she is the smartest young lady I know. She is growing up so much. I can't believe how much they change from 13 to 15! She wants to be a doctor and plans to go to med school in Atlanta.

BBBS needs mentors so very badly, especially men. All you have to commit to is ONE year and ONE hour a month. That is very doable for EVERYONE, especially those that have no children. Please think about it!
