Jump Rope for Heart 2010

Evan and Grayson’s school had a program this past week called Jump Rope for Heart. This is a fund raiser for the American Heart Association. Both boys have been so excited about raising money for such a worthy cause. Their grandfather, my dad, has had heart trouble, as well as our friend, Bill. I think knowing these people made this a very special cause for both boys. They also learned that the AHA  helped the family of a friend whose younger brother was born with a heart defect. I’m very pleased that they wanted to participate in this fundraiser and that their school made it a fun time for them. I was able to participate on the day each boy’s grade had their turn, which was really special. These kids were excited!

    I’m so happy that the boys are learning now to share with others through Jump Rope for Heart – and through watching their parents do the bike ride each year for MS.

    Good job, boys!

    I love the pictures! I’m sure Grayson and Evan had a lot of fun while helping a worthy cause.
