when it occurred to me that I was doing the very thing that I can do to help. I can run.

Please consider this challenge to raise funds for Haiti. A fund for Catholic Relief Services has been created. I invite you to run too! You can join Running For Haiti as a runner, send out your own invites to your own friends and family and send your funds through the same foundation. More information will follow soon!

Today

Mothers' Day! My kids were home. We had dinner together and we took a walk.

Although she had flowers and phone calls, my own mom was by herself today. It is hard to be the daughter and a mom. I am often torn between the two obligations. I hope her day was beautiful and full of the knowledge that we think of her all the time, even when we cannot get to her.

For all of us who mentor, teach, love, nurse, care for, worry about and hope for a child every ten minutes or so, take the 11th minute for yourself. Happy Mothers' Day!
