Almost every day as I thank God for our meals, I wonder how it is that David and I get to feed our boys... 3 healthy meals a day, and snacks besides.  When they say, "When are we going to eat? I'm starving, Mom!" I know that they have no idea what that is like.  And I cannot imagine what it would be like to watch our boys go hungry, become weak, lose their energy... and maybe worse.  I think I just stop my brain from going there... and then I grab onto this race as a way that together we can make a significant difference in the lives of children who have not been born into the plentiful circumstances we have.   

I’m excited to again be running the 5K Run for Hungry Children with Bright Hope, International who serves the extreme poor- those living on less than $1 a day. Through relationships with churches Bright Hope brings physical, economic and spiritual help to those in desperate need.

For example, $30 will feed and educate a child for an entire month! Please give generously to the kids by pledging on my Firstgiving page. If you get excited, you can help me in a big way to raise money by emailing this to people you know, posting this to your Facebook wall or giving me a shout out on Twitter!  And I have never even been on facebook or tweeted... LOL

Thank you for joining with me as I run so these precious children can too!
