SO MUCH FUN!
I was assigned to help park people and while I thought it would be boring it was actually probably the best job I could have gotten. I was on a team of six people, got to help organize the process to efficiency, and most of all was able to personally greet everyone who participated in the fundraiser. At the end I waved goodbye to everyone as they drove out.
In the middle there I got to participate a truly beautiful celebration and commemoration of babies who passed on either in the womb or in infancy. The Missing Grace Foundation is an amazing resource for families going through this heart break and it is fueled more by passion and love than money. Of all the things that impressed me about the day, one stood out the most: the 5k was a fundraiser but really, you wouldn’t have known. The event was wholly focused on the commemoration of the babies who had passed on and the families who love them.
One of my favorite pictures of the day. Ironically has nothing to do with the event. It is my friend tearing down a balloon arch.
