We are at it again! For the third year in a row we will be participating in the Cade Foundation Race for the Family. Only thing different this year is that all three of us will be running in the race. Okay, Jackson will be riding in the stroller.

Its hard to believe that almost a year ago Jackson was born! We are thankful each day that the doctors at Shady Grove were able to help us have the baby that we always wanted. Over the past 9 months we have watched Jackson go from a little helpless baby who wanted nothing more than to be cuddled and loved to a little boy on the move who is keeping us on our toes at each moment of the day.

However, there are some couples that aren't so lucky because they do not have the financial means to seek the treatment that could make their dreams of having a family come true. That's where the Cade Foundation comes in - they provide Family Building Grants to couples so that they can seek fertility treatments or adoption. Last year they able to award several Family Building Grants because of the money raised from the Race for the Family.

So, will you help a couple in their quest to start a family and make a donation to the Cade Foundation today? Remember, every little bit counts!

Thank you for your support. If you're in the DC area and want to join us on October 2nd for family-friendly fun - visit www.raceforthefamily.com for more inforamtion.
