If I got your attention then this post is worth it! If you don't know what CHD stands for it is a congenital heart defect. Today we have the It's My Heart (non-profit) Northern NJ Walk to raise money and awareness. The learn more got to http://www.itsmyheart.org.

On another note, please pray for all the kids and parents who are blessed to make the "survivor" lap and extra prayers for those parents that can't.

Harrison and I will be out in full force with my mom, sister-in-law, nephew and his friend and maybe one of my friends.

Thanks!
