Walking for a cause
Saturday evening we participated in our local Light The Night Walk, a four year old little girl at our church is a survivor of Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, she does maintenance visits and chemo, but she is a survivor.
Everyone who walked either got a white (survivor) or red (honor/walking for) balloon that had a light in it. It was amazing to see thousands of lite up balloons for the entire two miles, and it brought tears to my eyes, to think of just how precious life can be. There were survivors as young as our friend and as old as 89, as well as everything in between. These people truley are survivors!
Get ready because tomorrows post will be on the horrific movie The Golden Compass.

They do walks like that around here too. We also do a lot of Alex's Lemonade stands because a little girl we know is a neuroblastoma survivor. These events are really great.
