Please and Thank You

We are constantly teaching Joshua to say these words when making requests and when help is given to him. We are also trying desperately to see that Andi begins to use these signs so that when her words finally come, she will have a head start on her manners.

Because we are constantly aware of our children's manners, I thought I should do my best to use my manners as well. So.....

THANK YOU to the many people who have already contributed to my Team in Training fundraising. You have raised an astounding $1275. I am blessed and so are the many patients that will benefit from your giving.

PLEASE to any others that have thought about contributing to this wonderful cause. Now is the time. I still need to raise $525 to reach my final goal. You can make your donation here.

***Last week I ran 8.5 miles in 1 hour and 20 minutes. On Saturday I will run 9.5 miles. This is the farthest have run to date. I have met some great girls that challenge me and keep me accountable to show up every Saturday. Surprisingly, I am having a great time!
