Hooray for another successful (and dry!) March for Babies! Team Kenyon was small but mighty this year with both boys walking the majority of the five-mile route. We brought the one-seat stroller, which they each took a turn in, but we did not have any struggles with getting them to walk or both wanting to ride at the same time. The full route is a little more than four miles, and I would estimate that they each walked about three.

Part of Edward's motivation to walk came from his first-ever opportunity to walk a dog. Our friends Dianne and Stefani brought two of their dogs for the even,t and Edward was absolutely thrilled when Dianne handed him the leash. At one point he heard a siren at a distance and said to John, "I get to walk a dog AND hear an ambulance--this is such a great day!"

We do not expect this to become a regular event, unless he decides to open his own dog walking business. This dog was the perfect, gentle, low-key dog for a six-year-old--never pulling or even straying more than a foot in either direction to explore new territory/scents.

Thanks to everyone who donated or walked with us today (or plans to walk in your own town in the coming weeks!) As of this writing, Team Kenyon has raised nearly $3,500 in the hope that one day all babies will be born healthy and at full term. There's still time to increase that total!
