March of Dimes Walk

We did our walk to honor you again this year. Can't believe it's already our second walk. We got to meet some amazing new families whose babies were also in the NICU. One of the families, the Kramers, have twin girls. Stella got to go home much sooner than Katie. Katie has a trach like you did and had a very hard and difficult road in the NICU. I'm so happy she got to go home to her family after months and months and months fighting for her life. She actually received 2 lovies from us while she was in the hospital when we went for your angelversary last year as well as your birthday. It makes my heart so happy to know they got lovies from you. 

The other family we met, the Hills, had triplets and their oldest triplet Christipher is in heaven with you. I'm sure you're friends and watch over us. They are both amazing families and I feel so honored that they joined our team. 

They did the path of hope to honor or give memory to those in the NICU. Pretty sure I submitted your entry at the last second and didn't realize I put your birthday wrong. Oops. Next year I'll get it right. :) 

When i saw this headband for Lexie I had to buy it. The colors are perfect for your walk. Only somehow I dropped it in the parking lot and I was devastated. Sweet Hallie bought her a new one for the next walk and it arrived yesterday. She is such a tender hearted girl. 

We loved walking for you, Caleb. Your NICU buddies were there in spirit. One had to get staples cause he fell off the couch the night before..poor boy.  Another NICU friend's mom had to work and she couldn't come alone. ;) Another buddy moved to the east coast so they couldn't come. But we could feel their love along with our family that couldn't come. 

Oh sweet boy, if you only knew how much you are loved and missed. 

I love you to heaven and back.
