P.S. Lesley-Ann is incredible. 

It took me forever to get all the information for my @together.rising application, but I finally did it and sent it in this afternoon. Here's hoping they can help. Until then, on to creating an educational presentation on service dogs, ESA, and therapy dogs. Book's helping. #TogetherRising #AdventuresOfBook #ChronicIllnessWarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw-f5a9Ae7c/?igshid=1mguysgagq4tg

Last square for my Mother & Child Reunion wrap from caston to final round this morning. First time stamp was 9:48 and last 3:24 with splashing in the waves, gassing up the car, and lunch mixed in there. Now for a lot of grafting. Are you participating in the KAL? Friday is our last day in my Ravelry group. No need to finish, though! #motherandchildreunion #keepfamiliestogether #togetherrising #knittersofinstagram (at Popham Beach State Park)

Even in the shadows my Darlin, remember You are Light, You are Love✨ 💫 #seethelight #youarelight #lovewarrior #togetherrising #stoptheoppression #youareenough #timetorise Nice window. (at Chicago, Illinois)

Nine delicious blackberry squares finished on my Mother & Child Reunion - enough for a baby blanket, but six shy of my planned stole. Luckily, there are almost two weeks left on the KAL over in my Ravelry group. Won’t you join us? Use the Designs or Shop link from my profile to grab your copy (and then I will get to send another donation to @together.rising ) - you don’t have to finish to be eligible for prizes. #motherandchildreunion #keepfamiliestogether #togetherrising #knittersofinstagram

Friends, go take a peek at @brooklynsourdough ‘s video. My talented friend scored her loaf in the lace pattern from Mother & Child Reunion. Amazing! After you marvel at her artistry, come back and buy a copy of the pattern, so I can donate more to @together.rising at the end of the month. #motherandchildreunion #keepfamiliestogether #togetherrising #knittersofinstagram

You MUST read this. We MUST call this out as what it is and DO something. . Not being able to show up there and assist somehow in person doesn’t mean we can just sit around and wait for others to help fix this. I know it doesn’t sound like much but $5 dollars will be absolutely well spent donating to this cause. this is happening—- what side of history do you want to be in? If you have ever heard your baby cry... you know the angst it brings... it can physically hurt sometimes—- imagine knowing your child is missing and he or she must be so afraid and vulnerable —- you cannot separate children from their mothers to teach a lesson... that is not how you secure borders. . Most of these people leave their counties behind to find asylum but most have no knowledge of how to request it so they flee and usually there isn’t much paperwork planning involved... .. —what has happened here? Do we not all see we are all human? We are all equal? Would we allow this to happen to our American children? —-we are all the same and the most innocent must be protected now t be used as an example or deterrent for immigration—- this is not how a leader nation acts—- the American people are kind and welcoming joyful and diverse—- I cannot believe this is actually happening to those families—- but it is—- and now it’s time to DO SOMETHING . . . . . . #keepfamiliestogether #immigrationlaw #childrenseparated #childrenseparatedfromparents #border #borderfamilies #childrenseparated #parentsandchildrenseparated #immigrationaction #protecttheinnocent #donate #brenebrown #togetherrising (at Pennsylvania)
