Here are but a few recent examples of God's gifts these past few weeks. There's a lot more gifts that have happened all year long; but I doubt you have time for such a lengthy blog!
We are thankful for those who were not afraid to "Be Brave and Shave" in support of Children's National Medical Center and the fight against pediatric cancer.
Gretchen, Jay, Nicole and Kimber - we love you guys!!! Clinic visits could be horrible,but you make them something that Carson looks forward to!
Thanks Dr. L - Carson looks forward to seeing you too!....and so do his parents!
Officer Tom, our special friend. Carson loves knowing a "real policeman"!We are thankful to organizations like Growing Hope, who give a boy and his family a fun day to remember at King's Dominion.
Carson atop the ferris wheel enjoying a sunny day.We are thankful to all those who've donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in support of Jennifer's efforts to run the Disney Marathon and the search for a cure. This week, as I learned about my friend's 7 year old son, diagnosed with Bcell ALL the day before Thanksgiving; I again realized that no parent should ever have to hear the words "Your child has leukemia". We won't stop until that phrase is erased!
By the way, the winner of the gym membership is........ Sue Earman! Thanks Sue for your donation (and being a great running partner to boot!)
What it takes to get a 14 miler in on a 32 degree day: Tights, running skirt stuffed with sport beans, new stability shoes (to keep the knee in place), long sleeved shirt, ear headband, hat, ipod, fuel belt withgatorade and gloves!
We are thankful for birthdays!!! Some times we forget that life is, in fact, a gift from God in itself and worth the celebration. Don't take it for granted!
A teenager among us......YIKES!
Ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins - YUM!Our thanks to you, our friends, family and readers! Your words, deeds and prayers have carried us through another year!
