A Friday Thank You

Just a quick note to thank all of you who supported and donated a few bucks to help my niece Maura reach her goal for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Marathon that she's been in training for for months. I am humbled by your responses and sacrifices and honored to be a part of this community here in blogland.

If blogging has given me with anything, it is the blessing of having met and known and shared so much with such great people. You all totally and completely rock.

A huge thanks as well to Ken and Emily and all the great folks over at It Comes in Pints for helping us with that final push to reach the $4000 mark. Incredibly special special people.

Even though Maura's donation pledge has been met, you can still drop a few bucks until the 21st of October, Marathon day. Im sure we've all had someone in our lives unfortunately touched by cancer and while a few dollars doesnt seem like all that much in the grand scheme of things, every little bit helps. And it's not just the money, but your support and prayers and good vibes and participation are every bit as important.

Thank you for caring, thank you for helping and thank you, most of all, for being you.

Stay tuned for posts and pictures from Maura's Marathon later on in October. And, if your in San Fran, you may wantto go cheer her on.

Un beso y un fuerte abrazo pa' cada uno.
