FINAL MEETING BEFORE THE BIG DAY!!! A LITTLE ANGEL SHOWED UP WITH A BIG DELIVERY

Tonight's meeting at the event spot went very well. I had a great turn out, which has been a blessing. I love the idea that this walk has brought me close to people that I have not seen or spoken to in years. I am trying to keep myself busy and together for the most part, but I am finding I am less myself. It is hard to believe I will be walking on Sunday in Memory of my very own Husband, my sons Father. It floors me. I tell Alek we are on our way to a meeting for Da-Da's walk and then I think to myself, he has no idea what that really means. One day he will and he will be proud to be able to walk in it for his father..........

So among the meeting was a beautiful child Alyssa Waters. Her mother and her have been coming to the meetings and Alyssa has been very helpful with the little kiddos running around. She is only 9 and has a huge heart and is so motherly. Her father and I coach together and he was also my coach in HS. So, she comes up to me tonight and hands me this envelope. You can read what it says below...........



THERE IS AN ANGEL AMONGST US PEOPLE!!!

This little girl raised $520 by asking her teachers at school to sponsor her..........




Bless her heart and I have tears rolling down my face as I write this because she will change lives and that people is what it is all about............Love ya Kid!! and thank you for all your dedication...........

PS. I am working on getting a scrolling bar on the side of this blog with everyone that has donated through the blog and at the walks names up and scrolling...........hopefully soon I will at least have the blog donations up and scrolling
