11 June - Sarah's Birthday



I just got done with a 14 mile walk on the treadmill - part of my training for the 3-day walk-for-the-cure later this summer (http://www.the3day.org/goto/sixtyforsarah) - and of course I've been thinking about Sarah and that it's now past midnight and the beginning of 11 June, her 40th birthday. It feels right that this day should start this way. She is my reason, my inspiration for doing the 3-day walk. It takes a lot of time and commitment, but it's something I can do. I couldn't save her life, couldn't find a way to avert disaster... but this I can do, for her.
And the day will continue that way with the FAB 5K race taking place in the morning.
Sarah, my wife, my best friend, mother of my children... I miss you and I'm holding you in my heart as always, but especially today. I hope you feel the outpouring of love wherever you are from so many who are thinking of you on your birthday.

I always think of Sarah on her birthday since we share that day. You have been so amazing during these last few months. You and the boys seem to be staying busy and having fun. Thanks for keeping your blog going. It's fun to see how your boys are growing.
