Running for Hope




This past saturday the girls and I ran a race (Kev too...he helped Melat finish) that benefited HFAP. I ran the 5k and the girls ran the 1 mile kids run. It was a very cold morning but the girls were such troopers and hung in there waiting for me to finish and they even got to have some hot chocolate. It was Melat's first race ever and though she was pretty tired at the end, she enjoyed it a lot...both the girls did. It was awesome to be able to be a part of a community event that benefits something we care deeply about and that ultimately benefits our son and other children in Haiti. And it was even more beautiful that we could do it as a family.
