Addie Fausett is suffering from a brain condition that will likely take her life within the next year. In preparing to celebrate what they think will be Addie's final Christmas, her parents have asked for people to send their daughter a "lifetime of Christmas cards."
Her father also died over the weekend, apparently.
This one hit me a little harder than the other boy I posted about. My oldest daughter is 6, and I can't imagine losing her right now. (I might've cried a little when I read the article.) However, I do know the sheer joy my 6 year old gets from opening mail, especially when it's addressed to her.
Anyway, I'm adding her to my Christmas card list. It's a simple way to make someone happy.

(This was the address provided, but I'll probably send separate cards for the sisters.)
