Kidney Walk

Today was the Kidney walk. A cause near and dear to my niece Eryn. She found out she had kidney issues when she had her last child.

Eryn and I walked last year. It was so much fun she decided to bring the twins and baby this year. Her team was called "Life's A Beach, Love Your Kidneys". Okay, whatever. At the eleventh hour her friend Kayla (pushing pink stroller) joined us with her baby.

It was at Lehigh Parkway and only about 1.5 miles. A short walk. The Marines were doing drills in the park and the ladies were very interested in them. We had only gone about two blocks when J started whinning about walking so far. She promply told him that he walked further to school, so put a lid on it. He did.

Soon he decided nobody was walking fast enough. The girls were pushing strollers and A has to be about 50 pounds. Tough work.

I offered to take J with me and we booked it.  I wanted to take a pix of him crossing the finish line. I did, then lost him. I had a moment of panic. Where is he? I screamed his name and there he was. Pshew.
