| Here are Some "Pink Notes" Submitted by Readers: Name: Emily A. Why she's noteworthy: Emily is a little 14 year old girl who has had leukemia three times in her short life. Recently, in December, she had a bone marrow transplant and is now doing much better. The thing that amazes me is that she has remained happy the entire time. Even when her hair fell out, she simply pulled out the hats and bandanas and kept going. Emily is a really close friend, and I have never once heard her complain or wonder why God let this happen to [her.] She has inspired so many people. She is the brightest, cutest, most positive girl I have ever met! I wish everyone in the world could meet her Name: Amber Murri Why she's noteworthy: She is the best friend I've ever had. She is so funny and can lift me up when I'm down. She's fun to giggle with and likes cowboys and romance stories. She hardly ever is gloomy, and most of all she's always there for me when I need her. I lover her so much. -Submitted by Amanda O., a reader from Richland, Washington, via email Name: Marie Chilton Why she's noteworthy: She's so humble about everything. Even though she has achieved things that other people will never achieve--she's modest about it. She also is a very good leader. She doesn't force people to do things. I need to b more like her. She's always there right by all her friends whenever they anything. She'll be great someday. -Submitted by Amanda O., a reader from Richland, Washington, via email Name: Darci Nelson Why she's noteworthy: She has encourage me with my writing and is willing to help me become better. She shares her talents with others to help them become better. She's someone who I can go to when I have 'boy problems' and she won't laugh at me--she'll sympathize with me and help me. When I'm around her I feel like a better person. -Submitted by Amanda O., a reader from Richland, Washington, via email Name: Melody Anderson Why she's noteworthy: She befriends anyone that wants to be her friend. She also goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcome and loved.

She thinks of others often and asks what she can do for them. She understands the importance of service in her life, and has taught me that same principle. She's there for me when I need something, and always there when I need someone to talk to, or if I just want to have those crazy adventures that only bored college girls can have. She's influence my life for the better. -Submitted by Amanda O., a reader from Richland, Washington, via email Name: A friend Why she's noteworthy: Well, as I read the book, every time I read a pink note I thought of people in my life that have and do inspire me. It is so hard to decid who to begin with so that is why I titled it #1 so that I can eventually write about the others! I want to start with a very good friend who I met in high school...and then she moved far away. We have stayed in contact through the years, which I am very grateful for. She is such an example and inspiration to me because she has always shown me how to be cheerful and happy no matter your circumstances and this is very hard to do at times! She has worked very hard and has followed her dreams which have led her to great success and I am very proud of her!
Why she's noteworthy: She parks in the handicap spot at our apartment complex and every day slowly walks out to her car and always stops when we have a window or the sliding glass door open to smile and say hello and especially to talk to the children. Last week she brought my two kids, Elisabeth and Charles, some flip-flop frosted sugar cookies. Just seeing her makes me happy. Thank you for your submissions! |
