I have many friends and family who have had a very hard time with Infertility. It has made me realize how I sometimes take for granted the blessing of having children. This year I would like to start off by donating to Pound the Pavement for Parenthood. They are an organization that holds events around the nation in order to help people in specific areas through their struggle of infertility. Pound the Pavement for Parenthood often sponsors couples by hosting races of varying distances and other events supporting the cause of infertility where people come together to support those couples by participating in the race or event. By doing so, these participants help raise money for the sponsored couple for their hope of starting/building a family. We have some wonderful friends in Indiana who have had the amazing opportunity to be sponsored this year. Their race isn't until April but since we are not going to be there we thought this would be a great way to support them and get the word out about Infertility! We are so grateful for the opportunity that we have had to be able to have children and hope that we can remember what a great blessing and privilege it is to do so. If you or someone you know has been through these hard times, please help us support and show our love for them.
