March of Dimes walk

February 28, 2009

On April 25, 2009 I am planning on going for a walk. I don’t walk far or often but this cause is a very worthy one and yes it is worth going 3 miles even with my arthritic knees. My grandchildren, Madilyn and Matthew were born 8 weeks premature. Thankfully they are both home and [...]
