Of course, we got up yesterday morning and it was pouring. I was not sure how Mira would do with rain pounding on her while she was running. By the time we got to the race, the rain did slow down, thankfully.
The girls got to the start of the race and were geared up to run, run the BIG 1k. And they are off... Mira and her little friend E held hands the whole time they ran. It was so cute! Little A ran with S and they were not far behind the other ladies. After the race, each child got a Super Star Medal, a kite and a book.
It was a great turn out for the whole event and what a positive way to raise money for children's cancer research. The little boy that the girls were running for was not at the event. He was sick and they found out that he has HINI, really on top of everything else?!!!
As a parent of 2 beautiful,healthy children,. My heart pours out to this family and what they have to deal with on a day to day basis. I guess, that I will take the whining, the fighting, "mom I need this" and be thankful that we are all healthy! Pray for this family. And give your kids a big hug and kiss today!
Here are the ladies at the race:

Way to go, Mira! So cute that the girls held hands the whole way - I don't think I could hold hands and run with someone that far!
Way to go Mira! Great job!
