Hi friends and family. April 28th our family will be
walking to raise money for the March of Dimes. The March of Dimes mission is to
improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and
infant mortality. 7 months ago our friends, the Mitchells, lost their baby
daughter to complications due to a premature birth. Ellianna Grace was born 11
weeks early and was with us for only 4 short months. They have 3 other children
Jacob, Bailey and Bella. Bella and Katie had the exact same due date but Bella
was born 10 weeks early. Today she is a spunky 4 year old and loves playing
dress up with Katie. Watching our friends go through these experiences has made
it even more clear how important research and programs like what the March of
Dimes provides are. My goal is to raise $150. If only 15 people gave $10 each I
would meet my goal.

full-term pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. And it’s used to bring
comfort and information to families with a baby in newborn intensive care.

Again...you make me proud to be your auntie. March of Dimes has been special to me for many years. I helped with fundraising for 5 years while I worked in Monticello. We were blessed to have healthy children and grand children and have many friends that have needed the March of Dimes. Hats off to you sweetheart and count me in.
