Auden lights up every room he enters! He makes a new friend everywhere we go. Auden is pure joy!
We would like to thank you for supporting Auden in this year's competition. Your participation helps us support Toys for Tots in their mission to bring joy and hope to children during the holiday season.
We're celebrating the power of play, creativity, and imagination through beloved brands families know and love.
We called Auden our “sparkly baby” when he was younger - that beautiful spirit shines through just as much today! Auden makes sure everyone around him feels seen and loved. Whether it’s adoration for his family, encouraging words for his friends, or an enthusiastic welcome to someone new, Auden makes every space feel kinder and more fun!
What are Auden's favorite activities?Auden loves music and dancing. He used to sleep in his crib with a toy ukelele. He loves to swim and he is working hard to learn how to swim on his own. He bakes and cooks every chance he gets, and spends hours creating unique structures with magnatiles. He loves books and being read to by his moms and oldest sister. Auden adores his big sisters and he will do anything they do just to be with them.
How would $25,000 impact your family?We are a family of five in a small house with one bathroom and a small shared bedroom for the kids. Strapped with house payments, student loans, childcare costs, healthcare premiums, and the rising cost of food (our three kids get more voracious every day!), we do not have anything extra to spend on home improvements. Of course, we feel blessed to have our home and family as it is! However, the $25K will allow us to move toward putting in a second bathroom and creating a second kids’ bedroom.
