I hope that Will, looking back on today
Will remember a mommy who had time to play;
Because he'll grow up while I'm not looking
There are years ahead for cleaning and cooking.
So quiet now cobwebs, dust go to sleep,
I'm loving my baby, and babies don't keep.

March for Babies

We will again be hosting a team, Will's Wobbly Walkers, for the  March for Babies walk to raise money for the March of Dimes. This organization champions the needs of moms and babies in our community and across the nation. The money we raise for March for Babies will help:


- support all-important research offering preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects
- educate women on things they can do to increase their chances of having a healthy baby
- provide comfort and information to families with a newborn in intensive care
- push for newborn screening and health insurance for all pregnant women and children


This year, we will walk in honor of Will's awesome strength and miraculous health and also this year in memory of his Papa, who passed away just 2 months ago. Will was the absolute light of my dad's life.  He gave him so much joy, he softened his heart, and he would have done anything for Will.  Last year my dad joined us for the March for Babies, and  he'd be walking right along side us if he were here today.  I know with him watching over us, our hope for sunshine is better than ever this year!

We hope you'll support Will's Wobbly Walkers this year!! We'd love to have you walk with us on April 24th in Milwaukee, or donate to our team.
