Finish

Remember Kelly who ran the New Orleans Marathon in Tricia's honor last month? Well, she secretly (secret to us) asked the officials if Tricia could receive an Honorary Finishers Medal. It came in the mail with some other cool stuff the other day...it made Tricia's day!


Thanks, Kelly!!!

Whoo! Just wait until Tricia gets to run the marathon of keeping up with a toddler :) I'm sure that'll be her best race yet!

That's awesome! Such a great idea!Hey, I was wondering if Tricia or her mom or you or someone could help me out. I'm a CF mom and am having a very bad day. I let it all out on my blog, but I will have to erase it in a couple of days before my in-laws leave and go back home. I could really use some good advice right now. I'm not sure how to handle it. I'm still learning how to me a good CF mom and not hurt anyone's feeling. Please help!

Way to go, Kelly! I love how you found a way to encourage a saint to persevere in difficult circumstances, to be her "feet" as it were in a marathon.

Kudos to the officials, too, for honoring the request!

Press on!
