How did that happen? The yellow forsythias are blazing with color, our crabapple trees are bursting into bloom this weekend, and the lilac buds are swelling. I had an outdoor visit with my mom today since the nursing home is having another outbreak. While I waited for them to bring her out, I gazed at a spindly spirea shrub, bravely putting forth a sprinkling of tiny white blossoms&#8230;.and somehow that gave me hope. The news from Ukraine continues to horrify, and I know many of you feel it in the pit of your stomach like me, and yet somehow Spring has come again.<br><br>How do we cope with the news? For myself, it helps to know I am doing something to help. I know if we all work together we can make a difference. Between all the quilts dropped off at eQuilter, and all the quilts you have shipped to Mission of Love, we are approaching <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/quilts-for-ukraine-update\/?fn=nl_20220423193118\">1000 donated comfort quilts<\/a> this week.<br><br>Kathy Price is working to load trucks, load containers, and ship supplies to Ukraine. She has shipped 13K lbs of rice to Kyiv by container, arriving in May. They are shipping food, medical supplies, equipment for Ukraine fire departments, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/luanarubin\/albums\/72177720298142686\">your donated quilts<\/a>&#8230;and the biggest challenge now is to raise the money to pay for the shipping expenses. She normally would use the free international shipping of the Denton Program, but they will not fly into the area as long as it is an active war zone. So we have to pick up the slack for the shipping expenses. eQuilter is sending thousands of dollars to help purchase relief supplies and pay for shipping the quilts, but can you also help with a few dollars?<br><br>If 5% of the people who receive this email will send $5 each, we could raise $30,000 for Ukrainian refugee relief. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/5-for-mission-of-love-shipping-expenses\/?fn=nl_20220423193118\">Will you take a moment to go to the Mission of Love Gofundme page<\/a><\/strong> to make a small contribution?
