March of Dimes

Today we walked, well mommy walked and I rode in my stroller, in the North Texas March of Dimes' March for Babies. I wasn't sure what all the hoopla was but apparently its a very important charity to mommy. She's been involved in it for years! Mommy headed up her law firm's walk and fundraising efforts and they raised over $5,000 dollars. I really don't know how much that is but I'm guessing its alot more than I've got in my little piggy bank. Mommy's such a sap now that I'm around, prolly because she loves me so much. She tells me how thankful she is to have me and that I'm healthy (well relatively - stupid ear infections). Mommy found 2 families for the firm to walk for, I felt really sad when mommy told me about a little baby boy named Jack. I think Jack was pretty special and I think he's very lucky he gets to be back in heaven with God. My mommy designed posters for the fundraising and I think she did such a great job!


There were so many people at the march, I think there were 25,000 people! Can you believe that? The march was 5 miles long around White Rock Lake. It was a perfect day for it too, not too hot and had a nice breeze. I was excited to see so many people, there were even puppy dogs! I got to meet a few of mommy's friends from work too.
