So it finally came. Yesterday we did the March of Dimes walk. It was a wet walk, but it was worth every single step!!! I felt so happy crossing that finish line. I knew Gabriel was with us the whole time, and I'm just glad I was able to do something in hopes that one day no parent ever has to lose their child. I can't wait to do it again next year!
I want to take this time to thank all the walkers that joined us, and to all that donated! We ended up meeting our goal of $500 the night before the walk. I'm already starting to plan next year's walk, and will be raising my goal to $1,000.
At the end of the walk a mom from our support group ran into us, and we gave each other a huge hug. She is a very inspiring lady to me, and I think of her a lot when I start getting sad. She's got so much strength, and her story is devastating, but she manages to make the best of life. She is really an inspiration to all.
Life has been very busy, and I haven't been able to keep up with my blog as much as I want/need to, but I'm trying to get back on here on the regular again.
