We're embarking a fun, new adventure this year as the 2013 March of Dimes Ambassador Family for Idaho and our first function is this week at the organizations 75th Annual Celebration in Boise. What a neat opportuity to share Ayla & Zoey's Story and promote Prematurity Awareness.
It's interesting because having never been previously exposed to extreme premature babies, we would have not known that micro-preemies existed or the various challenges prematurity babies can face. Now we are living it!
We have a new respect for organizations such as the March of Dimes and the excellent work they do. And personally, I have a deeper admiration for those healthy, very pregnant women and find myself silently thinking, "You have no idea how lucky you are that your body likes to be pregnant...." then shudder because if I were to become pregnant again, I would be one nervous, paranoid wreck the entire time and on bed rest for certain.
One of our friends donated his time and talents to create the amazing video below which introduces our family and provides a brief story:
It's such a neat video and way beyond anything we could have ever created- we're grateful for those willing to help us 'computer-challenged' people!
Don't forget to join us for the next event!
