The Ausmi

Today was the MS Walk. Last year I didn't look into it until it was too late and I wasn't sure I wanted to do it last year anyways. So, it was my first time. I had about 12 people on my team. Pretty good for my first year I thought. It is okay that half of them are children. They still count! The walk is to raise awareness about MS and to raise money for research and support for families with MS. It was a 3 mile walk. I think that everyone had a good time.

Here is our team.



Some of us got a little tired.




Some cool kids!





There are some honorary members of the team as well. My father-in-law has knee problems and my sister-in-law broke her toe yesterday. So her and her children couldn't come. And my wonderful hubby was at work.



I just want to say thank you to everyone who donated money and/or time to the MS walk. I am praying that one day they find a cure for MS. I am doing very well right now with my MS. However, I do know that one day I could wake up and not be able to walk or do something else that I could do before. It is very scary to think about sometimes. I try to focus on what I can do. And I try to look at life differently than I did before. I try to not put off what I want to do. I enjoy life more because of MS. Does that make sense? I am just so grateful for everything that God has given me. He has blessed me beyond what I deserve. So, again, thank you to all the people who support me. I love you all.
