Dear Family and Friends:

It is that time of year again. Get out those sneakers and get ready for March for Babies. Last year our team was so successful and we would like to thank all of you who supported our team and the March of Dimes.

We've already hit the ground running with a $1,000 donation from Safeway! My goal for our team this year is to raise at least $5, 100.00!! I know that once again with all of us working together we can definitely do it!

As for Jack & Sean, they are 3 years old now and as healthy as ever. They are energentic and full of life. They still amaze us every day on how far they've come. Seanie has successfully completed speech therapy and is speaking very well. Jack is doing well also. We have recently found out that he does have asthma and food allergies. His asthma not surprising due to his history and by all means a small price to pay for what he's been through.

As usual we will be keeping with tradition and have a get together at our house after the walk. Or, should we have a nice day, perhaps a picnic in Tyler Park. Don't forget you can share "Jack & Sean's Story" that is on YouTube. www.youtube.com/7gallens

Thanks Again...

The Gallen Clan

Every year, half a million babies in the U.S. are born prematurely. Premature birth is the leading cause of newborn death and many life long disabilities. The funds we raise in WalkAmerica support research that saves babies' lives.

The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
