Sam and Alexis are so kind and thoughtful to everyone. They are true artists and make a great team together. They were expecting their first child Leland in 7-10 weeks. They couldn’t wait like most couples preparing and excited for his appearance. However on Tuesday October 21st 2024 the unexpected happened and his heart stopped beating. The angels above writing his name in the book of life decided he was just too perfect for earth. All though they have many questions along with the unimaginable pain they know that God is in control and comforting them along with family at this time. If you wish to send a meal to them e homemade or gift cards/ubereats/DoorDash for meals also venmo for time off work. I  know they would be greatful as they heal mentally and physically from the time in the hospital. Use the sign up sheet below or feel free to reach out for the best time. Lastly a message from Alexis Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, ``Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.''

Good at over 25,000 locations nationwide, recipients can use their Spafinder gift card for a massage or facial, yoga or pilates classes, acupuncture or chiropractic, or over 25 total services. Encourage your loved one to take a break for themselves with a wellness gift card they can use anytime. Available in any denomination between $25 - $500.
Why We Love This Gift: This is one of those gifts perfect in just about any situation. New moms and those facing stressful pregnancies love a massage. When facing illness, those affected do too. To be frank, self-care is often the first casualty of any crisis. When people are incurring unexpected costs at an alarming rate, the first thing to go are the "luxuries." However, those who face highly stressful situations with long/uncertain outcome are precisely those who should practice aggressive self-care. They won't do it for themselves. You do it for them. Pamper them. Let them know you want them to take a break and that their well-being is a priority.
What to Express in Your Card: I hope you don't mind my sending you this gift certificate. There is no one I know more in need of a massage/facial/yoga class. I know you won't do it for yourself - so I wanted to do it for you. I am sending you love.

Since 1971, Starbucks Coffee Company has been committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest quality arabica coffee in the world. Today, with stores around the globe, the company is the premier roaster and retailer of specialty coffee in the world.
Why We Love This Gift: Because it is coffee. We love this gift for that reason, but also because coffee (and tea) can facilitate conversation. People stop and talk over coffee and tea. Barista-made cups of coffee or steaming cups of hot tea are among life's "little" indulgences - the kind of thing that lifts people up. They are also among the first things people slash from tight budgets. Help them put it back. This gift is suitable for anyone to whom you want to express concern, consideration, or love. Also, here is a hot tip: teenagers love Starbucks. It is a great gift for a teenager.
What to Express in Your Card: I was just thinking about you as you grapple with recent events. I hope you will take a break and enjoy a cup of coffee - I know you are a latte fan. Maybe we can even meet for a cup? I'd love to know how you are doing and what I can do to be helpful. I send you lots of love.

Why We Love This Gift: Honestly, sometimes, permission to take a trip can be hard. Equally, sometimes expensive travel is necessary. One of the editors of Give InKind met a recently widowed woman who "confessed" (her word) to wanting to escape after the death of her husband following a long illness. She felt she could not justify the expense of a trip. Another family we have met along the way needed a place to stay while visiting a medical specialist far away from their home. People who lose their homes to natural disasters or as a result of financial strain need a place to stay. Lodging is an expensive component to any unforeseen circumstance. Remember to ask: where are you staying?
What To Say In Your Card: I know that the expense of travel is significant. I hope you don't mind my trying to offset some of it.

For more than 25 years Cold Stone has served up the finest, freshest ice cream, cakes, smoothies, and shakes using only the highest quality ingredients, and of course, the signature process of preparing custom ice cream creation on a frozen granite stone.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because there is just something about ice cream - more than any other dessert, really - that binds generations. Ask anyone if they remember eating ice cream with a grandparent and the answer is likely to be yes. We are betting that most people could even remember what kinds people had. (Chocolate and pistachio).
What To Express in Your Card: I wanted you to take a moment for a little rest.
