the village news

update on rallying the community to support TEAM BOWMAN:

  • abby's friend, leslie, has offered to watch the twins (plus her own toddler!) all day, everyday, during the entirety of abby's bed rest!
  • columbus state community college's early childhood education department has agreed to recruit some of their students to help with the twins and the triplets as an internship project.
  • tansky toyota (btw, eli had dr. tansky as one of his professors at the fisher school of business at ohio state!) has been contacted. pray that they have a van on the lot that needs a family!  :)
  • kroger, proctor and gamble, babies r us, and toys r us have been contacted.
  • thanks to eli's mom, local media outlets have been contacted. WBNS's anchorwoman, andrea cambern, has responded with interest.
  • full-time domestic help is in the process of being hired.
  • the triple stroller that abby and eli have determined that they need/want carries a high price tag......a thousand bucks. my parents to the rescue.  :)
  • a dear friend who shall remain nameless but is named kate has offered to clean the bowman abode once a week during abby's period of bed rest and then, when the babies are born, to bring a casserole and a bag of diapers (a "giant" bag, she said!) every week.
  • EVERYONE has said, "what can i do? please tell me what i can do." the outpouring of love and support has been phenomenal.
