YOU!

Dearest Blog Readers (All 10 of you),

    I am asking for your support. I have a sweet friend Carrie who is a mama on a mission to raise money again this year for March of Dimes. She lost her precious twin sons, Tate and McCoy in 2005 because they were born  too early. Her March of Dimes Team, N Squared, has since raised almost $15,000 to help ensure that one day, what happened to her, will not happen to the rest of us.What an awesome way to keep her sons spirits alive!

    If you think you have no connection to March of Dimes, you’ve got it all wrong! March of Dimes has done research so that all of our babies were able to make it to term and be born healthy. We should all give a little, even if it is only five dollars, to support this worthy cause.

    This winter, when Breckin was born and admitted to the NICU hours later, Adam and I got a small glimpse of what life is like for both babies who are born premature and their parents. We saw little babes, as tiny as pop cans struggling to survive. We also saw their parents. On the weekends the parents of these sweet babies would pack bags and stay all day, at the bedside of their little ones. On weeknights, I would see many parents arrive in their work clothes to spend precious time with their babies before making it home for dinner.

    March of Dimes has made great strides in their goal to ensure that each baby gets a healthy beginning, but they still have work to do!
