A Unique Way to Celebrate Mom

Hello Everyone!!!

So, I had been meaning to post about this, and I admit it, I completely forgot.  I feel awful for being such a bonehead!!  Anyways, one of my closest friends is doing a charity walk/run this weekend, and it would be awesome if you would consider donating some funds to the cause.  This is Cara's first Mother's Day with her little man...aka My Boyfriend, and I can't think of a better way to celebrate!  I truly wish that I could go to cheer her on instead of heading up to Edmonton for Hannah's surgery...I guess as Moms we have to go with the flow when it comes to our little ones. 

The Mother's Day Run and Walk will be raising funds for the Calgary Health Trust (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and Special Care Nurseries at the Foothills, Rockyview & Peter Lougheed Hospitals).  Though when the Diva was born, we lived in Maine, and she was in the NICU at Maine Medical Center, I know the importance of having a well equipped NICU.  The Diva wouldn't be here if it weren't for the care she received by her NICU nurses.

Cara has set her goal at $500 and she is so close to reaching it!!!  Please join me in wishing Cara and all of the other Moms out there a Happy Mothers Day by pledging some funds. 

Please click here to go to Cara's pledge page.

Oh, and she has no idea that I am posting this...she is way to humble to ask anyone to donate...so I'll do it for her!!!

Happy Mothers Day Everyone!!!

Cheers!
Sharon

What a touching post! I am a few days away from my 20 week ultrasound, and so it just "got me." I am wishing you and your daughter all the best in the next weeks and will be sending good thoughts your way! The book you made for her is really lovely.
