My name is Steven Gordon and I am a teen entrepreneur. I came across your twitter page which led me to your website.

I founded a company called TattooID which provides temporary safety tattoos for children (www.thetattooid.com). I really care about saving kids and I want to make it fun for them. I saw that your site is a great resource for parents and it is great that you are a parent yourself.

I was wondering if we could work together in some type of partnership or site feature. The simplest would be a review, and I would be more than glad to send you some customized tattoos.

Please let me know if you are interested or have any feedback at all. It would really help me improve TattooID.

Thank you

*disclaimer – my site has not been updated in sometime as I’ve been busy caring for my precious Ava who’s cancer relapsed last spring and underwent a BMT in Aug.

I just wanted to say that you are amazing. My marriage unfortunately fell apart through the past 3 1/2 yrs of Ava’s life. After being married to a man that could barely participate in her life when things were easy, my heart swells reading how much you adore and advocate for your daughter!
God Bless You!

Brad, that is pretty cool that they share the same birth date. Sounds like both of us are pretty lucky and blessed fathers.
