Saturday we made plans to cook a meal for the Ronald McDonald House, the one we lived at for 3 months.
The RMDH was such a special place for us that we wanted to give back to the families staying there now with sick children. It was surreal to be back at a place we associated with Brayden being sick and having B there with us and healthy was awesome.
One of B's NICU nurses stopped by to say hello and see her tiny preemie now a 23lb big boy. We swung by the NICU on the way home and our fave Dr was there. Dr Vega, she was in the delivery room with me to tend to B when he was born. She was on his team throughout the NICU stay and was a big part of his early life. It was great to see everyone.
B of course turned on the charm around all the ladies(nurses), such a little flirt!
We loved being able to give back, especially around the holidays. We plan to go back every year to cook.

YAY! I love seeing and reading about others giving back. My girlfriends and I made a meal for the RMHC several months ago. Isn't it rewarding being able to provide a meal to the families for a night? I am sure you understand it from both sides. Melanie
I blogged about my experience with the RMHC too!

That is so sweet Heather. You guys do so much for charity in B's honor and I think that's wonderful :-) I am taking the kids to donate toys to Children's Memorial toy drive and I am so excited about it.
So great of you guys to give back now that you can.
