This blog posting is dedicated to all moms and their special little ones !! We salute you PePPeRMoMs !!

What is about being a mother that inherently creates these feelings to give the utmost, give everything we have to our children. And the most amazing thing is that all of us as mothers bond as we have the same feelings for our little ones.

I recently met some amazing women from "First Candle". First Candle is a national nonprofit health organization uniting parents, caregivers and researchers nationwide with government, business and community service groups to advance infant health and survival. With help from a national network of member and partner organizations, they work to increase public participation and support in the fight against infant mortality.

These fantastic people have a mission in life to help babies get to their first birthday safely. The statistics are scary - every day there are several families in America grieving over the loss of a baby. Even the thought of something like this would bring tears to our eyes. A cause to help prevent these occurences by bringing awareness, helping research and development is truly an important and noble cause much required in our community.

You can visit First Candle at http://www.firstcandle.org/ and check out the "How to get involved" section within "About us" if you are interested in helping make a difference.

Thank you Marian, Deborah & Laura. You are amazing people doing amazing things and I am honored to have spent a few hours with you.
