WHY I'M RUNNING
I am a mom of eight precious kiddos, and of those eight I have one with special needs. My special needs son has taught me so much about not taking things for granted, living simple, loving others as God has called us to, and no matter the situation you keep on fighting. Though my special needs child does not have a life threatening illness, I understand to some degree the sacrifices, the hardships, and even at times the heartache involved. There have been many times in my family’s lives where others have helped us and blessed us, and this is my opportunity to give back in a small, but impactful way. I also, want to set an example to my eight kids that it’s so important to help others and the joy that comes from those acts of kindness is what really matters in life♥️

About Team J
