Day +516: Please Join Max's Mighty Mob!!

It's day +516 for Max and he is off at school, along with little Alex who just got on the bus for Kindergarten a few minutes ago! They are both doing fabulously with school. We could not have asked for it to go smoother so far. They have both looked forward to it and come home with smiles on their faces! There has not been one moment of hesitation or sadness about it! Their whole reaction to school and their smooth transition has made me realize just how difficult this past 18 months has been. They so missed being with their buddies and being at school, especially Max. It was just really difficult to keep a 7/8 year old happy, stuck here at home with minimal interaction. It is a true miracle and a real blessing that they are both able to get on that bus and go to school, just like they are supposed to! Life is good!

I am really writing today to let you all know that we have setup a team for the Cincinnati Walks for Kids event to support Children's Hospital on October 16th, 2010. We are again called Max's Mighty Mob and are hoping to have the largest team at the walk this year!!! Our goal is to have over 100 walkers and to raise more than $11,000 for Dr. Davies and her team's life saving research. You can register to walk or sponsor someone on our team through the following link: http://giving.cincinnatichildrens.org/NetCommunity/maxs_mighty_mob Max is actually going to be able to be there this year, leading the Mob so, we would LOVE to have a HUGE turnout, just to show him what an inspiring little guy he is and to show the hospital how grateful we are for the miracles they have performed in our lives!!!

Sure hope you can join us on October 16th! If you can't be there in person, please consider sponsoring someone...we can tell you that it is beyond money well spent!!! For those of you that want to join us but don't have a Mighty Mob t-shirt from last year, please email me and I'll order one for you. Just let me know what size you need.

More soon...

Peace and love,

Kristi (and Matt, Max, Alex, Ellee and Spud)
