Conjoined Birthdays!
Id like to wish a very happy birthday to Jade and Erin Buckles who turn five today, and to Kendra and Maliyah Herrin who turn seven. Ironically, all these girls are formerly conjoined twins born on the same day two years apart. Isn’t that funny? Most conjoined twins don’t make these brilliant milestones so congratulations girls!

Color Scheme
Just so it’s known, I’m not a girly girl and pink was not my first choice for the color scheme. I chose pink as the color for Toonies For Twins because more conjoined twins are girls than boys. Not that I don’t support conjoined twins who are boys, but there really are more girls.

We did it!
Oh boy, do I ever have news! Last night my mother went and e-mailed this link to everyone she new and Lesley Anderson (my newly appointed best friend!) has offered to pay the exchange for American currency. This is so great! I then went to babysit for a few hours and made thirty dollars! Of course that all went to Toonies for twins witch brings the total up to… $960 but oh, what’s this? I forgot the $20 my wonderful mother put in my box yesterday, which makes it $980. When I got home from babysitting my mother informed me that her boyfriend’s mother, Dawn had made a donation of $20 dollars…$1000! Oh my gosh, we did it! And by “we” I mean every single person who has ever made a donation or helped me with fundraising. Thank you!

E-fair
Sorry I didn’t update yesterday, it was a really busy day. At the E-fair things started out slow. REALLY slow. But then it got better and when I counted my money at the end of the day it was $60! As I said before all the money goes to Toonies for twins so that brings the grand total to...$930! Can you believe it! I had to check it twice I was so shocked. But really that’s only about $740 in American. But between the garage sale and the concert I think I will have 1000 U.S. I won’t stop till I do. Yesterday I got to babysit a ball of fluff disguised as a dog for six hours! That dog is so sucky, she is treated like a baby! Guess what her name is…Cupcake! :) Just thought id let you know. Ill post pictures from the e-fair tomorrow (or whenever I get them) Bye!

Sick day
My day started bright and early at 4 in the morning when I ran to the bathroom and puked my guts out. This would happen twice more before the decision was finally made that I would not be going to school today. I was miserable all day and very sore from puking. EWWW. No matter what I did today I could not get comfortable. I then decided that it was a good idea to go to choir tonight after only getting 4 hours of sleep last night. Wrong. I am so exhausted. Tomorrow at school the grades eights have an entrepreneurial fair. It’s a fair where we manufacture and sell a product. I made bracelets and all the money I make will be to help Erin get a service dog. I will post pictures and let you all know how it went tomorrow. I still have soooo much to do! Bye
PS: I really hate being sick:(

These are the pictures from the sleepover I had with my friends. It was a surprise birthday party for Frankie and Andi. There birthday is on the 20th but since Chelsey wont be here we decided to do it on Saturday. I made the names in the color of our hats so you know who is who. The twins had no idea we were doing this and the look on there faces when we brought down the cake was priceless. Those kinds of things are the real perks in life. When everyone left the next morning :( I had another birthday party to go to that lasted 10 hours! It was a blast; we all had so much fun! That’s why I was so tired last night and all I could give was a pathetic update. I got five more dollars last night for Toonies for twins witch brings the grand total to 865$...YAY! I’ll have the money in no time! My goal is 1000 but I think I might go over that. I’m not objecting. That would be awesome! I’ll write more later. Bye!
PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE-ANN

Visitors:)
Hi everybody!
Chelsey came to visit from Tillsonburg! She is my old friend, but she is a ditcher and she moved away three years ago. Just thought I’d let you know. If you haven’t noticed the site is still a work in progress. I’m still editing. I’m having a garage sale in the spring and ALL the proceeds will be going to Toonies For Twins. Also I’m planning a charity concert to help raise money. This blog will be a combination of Toonies for twins stuff as well as stuff that happens in my life. There are two sides to this cookie;). Speaking of which Carly, Frankie and Andi (more old friends) will be here soon so I have to go, Ill write again later. Bye!

Toonies For Twins
Wow, my first blog. this is exciting! well I should probably tell you what this is. My name is Keira M.L. Watters, Toonies for twins is a corporation I began to help families with conjoined twins. Its still small now but one day it will help a lot of people. right now Im working on helping to get a little girl a service dog. She is a formerly conjoined twin who is paralized from the waist down. a service dog will greatly improve her independence. I hope if you are reading this you will decide to help someone too. It makes you feel really good! I'll post more later, I have homework to do!
