Mother's Day


Sunday is Mother's Day - one of my favorite days of the year. I love that there is an entire day that is supposedly devoted to me (and all moms). I love that I can choose how to spend the day with my family. I love that they try so very hard to ensure my happiness on that day more than any other of the year. I love that I will be able to go on my training walk without feeling any guilt - it is Mother's Day afterall and it is what I want to do :)

In spite of all the love that we all feel around Mother's Day, we can't forget that one person is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes in the United States. This statistic represents our mothers, grandmothers, aunts, friends, and loved ones.

In honor of Mother's Day, I invite you to donate just $8, representing the 1 in 8 women in the United States that will experience a breast cancer diagnosis. It may not seem like a lot, but your donation would put us at least $8 closer to finding a cure. And best of all... it honors the moms in your life.

If you would like to donate, please go to http://www.the3day.org/goto/stacie.lemick and click on donate. Thank you - together we can make a difference this Mother's Day!
