Mark Your Calendars

On May 2nd, Primrose School of Hendersonville will be holding their annual Spring Fling/Family Health Day. Before having Brody, I worked at the school as a teacher, assistant director, and then as the director. I absolutely love Primrose, and I especially love the owners, Jason and Deanna McGee. They were not only my employers, but they were, and still are, my friends. I couldn't have asked for a better place to work or for better bosses!

This year, Jason, Deanna, Lynn (the director), and Ashley (the assistant director), have decided to do the Spring Fling in honor of Colby and Congenital Heart Defects. This is such an honor! I think it is so great of them to think of Colby and what he is going through. Hopefully, we will be able to use this huge event to spread some much needed CHD awareness. Also, a portion of the money raised will be donated to the Vanderbilt Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU) in Colby's name. This is the unit at Vanderbilt that takes care of Colby and all of the other heart babies and children that have heart surgeries at Vanderbilt. It is an amazing unit with absolutely wonderful nurses, doctors, and staff.

I hope that everyone is able to come out for this big event. In the past, they have had bouncies, pony rides, train ride, games/activities, dunk tank, food, bake sale, and lots of fun!!! Please mark your calendars for May 2, 2009 10am-2 pm. You and your kids can have a blast while helping spread CHD awareness and raise money for a unit that is doing incredible things for heart babies all over the region.

That is so great of Primrose to honor Colby during the Spring Fling. We had so much fun the last time we went... it will be a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. I have marked it on our calendar!
