March of Dimes

So now that I have this blog thing figured out, I'm back for my second attempt. Since it's Fathers Day, I wanted to share a story that I found very compelling. It's a two part article about a set of twins born seventeen weeks early. Both were only around 1 pound at birth, and dealt with tremendous odds to survive. I found this story while surfing Yahoo, and it reminded me of how great it is to be a dad. Not only that, but hopefully it will spur more people to donate to March of Dimes. I don't have many charities that I support, but Sprint is a big sponsor of MOD events, and I always try to get involved in some way.

Again, this is a two part story, so it's long, but worth the time. I also included a link to the parents website in case the Yahoo links expire.
