It's been a busy time here the past few days, but I wanted to post a quick update with the few minutes available right now.
As you may or may not know, Grace has been working hard since we moved here putting in a lot of time training and running 5K races in the KC area. Through the hours of training and participating in these races, she has helped raise awareness and funds for a variety of important causes including research in viral myocarditis and preventing sudden cardiac death in children, the Fox 4 Love Fund for Children, Harvesters, Parkinson's Research, Brain Tumor Research (and many more). Lakewood Elementary is great about encouraging community service among its students and as a result, Grace was recognized for the 110 hours she has put forth since August. Amazingly, the students of the school contributed over 4,000 hours of their time to give back to the community through various means. It's great to be encouraged by so many young people!
Contact me for information on upcoming events and feel free to join her!
