Hi Jeanie, thanks for supporting the March of Dimes. While a lot of babies are born healthy, there are many who aren't... as I've become aware of more recently. Now more than ever, I realize how fortunate I am to have survived as a preemie. My heart…

Boston Maratonh this year is in April, and rego has closed, but then doing it this year wasn't on my calendar :) As in all running, the only competitor you are racing is yourself, the only time to beat is your last time. I did the Gold Coast marathon last year and had a great time. I am doing it again this year.
I like your attitude od nothing being impossible :)

It's the gift that multiplies – a gift to the 29Day Giving Challenge, and a gift to those who receive them too!

Day 5 - Literacy

Today I donated to Reading is Fundamental, the nation's largest children's literacy organization. I discovered them through the One Dollar Give website recommended by Nicole. Although there was a $10.00 minimum, I was happy to contribute to such an important cause. I hope you will consider them too.
