March for Babies

Paul, me, and the girls will all be walking the March of Dimes March for Babies this year.  We are very excited to raise money for a great cause and to do the actual walk.  It's on April 29th here in Columbus.  With Hannah and Hailee being born at 30 weeks gestation, I feel like there is no better cause that we can be contributing to.  The mission of the March of Dimes really touches close to all of our hearts.

This little blurb is taken directly from the March of Dimes website:

Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick.
The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.

Your gift will support March of Dimes research and programs that help moms have full-term pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. And it will be used to bring comfort and information to families with a baby in newborn intensive care.

We know that we are extremely blessed with the outcome of our premature twin babies.  I consider us one of the fortunate families.  Some families are not so fortunate and have to deal with much harder circumstances than I can ever imagine.  Without the March of Dimes charity, I do not know if our girls would have the same outcome that they have. 

I have set the bar high for us with a goal of raising $500 and we are already over half way there!  Click on the link below and you can donate directly online.  Even a small amount helps!  Of every dollar donated, $.97 goes directly to the cause. Thank you so much to everyone that has already donated!
