Illini says 'hi'

What a luncheon! I was honored to be invited to Illini Hospital to talk with the auxillary group that supports the facility. This group of dedicated women raise thousands each year to help buy new equipment and support the hospital in a variety of ways.

We got the chance to talk about Willie's Wagon and the incredible show of community support that has resulted from its introduction.

After the presentation, many left with two or three signed books for children, grandchildren or even for themselves. They give in so many ways. Hats off to you for your work!

Laboring On Labor Day

Willie (and I) had some time off this summer to catch our breath. But now we are busy prepping for a very busy fall. Willie's new adventure is set to be released in early October.

We are pleased to have already been contacted by several shops and venues hoping to host a Willie event this fall and winter. Our school visits resume in January!
Stay tuned--the excitement is really building!
