The Heart Walk

The Heart Walk was today.  I wasn’t sure how the weather was going to hold up for us, but it ended up being a beautiful day and lots of fun with our family and friends.  I was proud that we made it there before the 9am start time especially since the kids normally sleep until 8am.  We woke them early, fed them, dressed them and loaded up.  We chose to do the 5K instead of the half one which may have been just a tad bit long for them, but they really did great considering.  We only had one meltdown, which was nothing a little juice and snack couldn’t fix Smile

He is doing wonderful, by the way.  If you didn’t know he just had surgery, you would NEVER know!  We went for our one week checkup and the doctors said he looks great.  He is playful.  Active.  Happy.  We are SO thankful!
