I'm Still a Blogger, I just Skip a Lot

Yeah so, I still consider myself a blogger.
I guess.
Even if I've been so absent that I've gotten emails from friends reminding me to blog.
But I'm here. I'm alive.
And you know this if you follow me on IG. ;)

I'm coming out of my hiatus today to tell you what I did today.
Thanks to my friend Janessa.

I signed up to be a St. Jude hero.
I am also in the middle of considering signing up for 2 other halfs, but we'll talk about that later.

This means, I run a half and commit to raising money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
My goal right now is $500.
I'm nervous about actually meeting that goal.
But I'm also hoping to blow it away and raise a ton more.

St. Jude is not where Harper was.
But I still feel a connection.
As if all moms of sick babies are in a club and we need to stick together.
So, I feel like I need to put my whole heart into raising money and into running this race.
Or at least crawling it.

If you feel like you want to donate, please do.

Here is the link to donate.

If that doesn't work, please let me know.
Now, let's see how high we can get my total up to???!!!!


Happy Friday friends! :) Pin It Now!

#IrunforBabyHarper

Words can't express how much the 5k in memory of BH meant to me....but pictures sure can.

I just wish I had a group shot of everybody....

















My whole family won a medal for their age division...and we didn't even pay anybody to
make that happen. Of course, the medals are a result of only about 60 participants, but a medal is a
medal, right?!

I was so proud of K&A. They ran the entire thing.
And took 1st and 2nd in their age group.
Alex told me she was pretending like Baby Harper was waiting at the finish line for us.

If only we could have made that happen, sweet baby girl.

I would like to say that our family is doing well. As well as a family can that is
completely missing a member.

We miss Harper. Daily.

We talk about him, we think of him, and we are so, so very thankful for him.
He taught us so much in his short life, and we will never forget each precious moment we had with him.

We might not ever feel like a complete family again, but we all know that God has a plan for us.
And although we don't have Harper here with us on earth, we know we have him watching us from up above. :)

Until the next 5K......if only they were free. I'm pretty sure my whole family is addicted to running them now. Happy Hump Day y'all.
Just for you FH!
