THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to those of you who have responded to my dire and desperate plea for more donations. each time i see an email that says i have received a donation in maddie’s honor, i get choked up.

for some reason, march of dimes is not as tech-savvy as i would like them to be and not all of the generous donations i have received are being posted on the widget i have in my right-hand sidebar. fear not, your money has been received… just in two different places. since i am captaining this team (i don’t think “captaining” is a word, but if it is my father-in-law would know) some donations have gone under my name, and some under the team name “My Bottle’s Up for Maddie.”

regardless of where you placed your donation, we got it all. so though the sidebar says $250 what it means to say is “NIC- YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY ROCK AND YOU HAVE RAISED $475.”

we have only a few days left until we walk for maddie this weekend in baltimore. if you’re in the area and want to join us, here’s our team page we would love to see you!

thank you again, from the bottom of my heart… and from the bottom of maddie’s parent’s hearts. heather and mike both walked in LA this past weekend. there was a walk in tampa as well. this weekend when paul, jackson, and i walk, there will be one in seattle too.

the blogging community as a whole is something that continues to grow in awesome ways and truly restores my faith in humanity.

if you haven’t yet seen heather’s speech she gave before the walk, check it out. then you’ll know why “My Bottle’s Up for Maddie” this coming weekend.

***UPDATE**** WE HAVE RAISED $800 SINCE THIS LAST POST WAS MADE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK!!! THANK YOU!!! OUR GOAL IS TO HIT $1000 BY SUNDAY. THANK YOU FOR HONORING MADDIE AND HER FAMILY.
