There was a lot of cuteness along the route. There were several places each day where kids were cheering us on with bells or pom-poms. But there was one instance of particular cuteness each day:
Friday: The cute was also extremely surprising as a walker came along side of us with a baby sling across her front. Carrying her 7-week old newborn with her this walker was still recovering from labor and delivery but was doing the walk anyway. The absolutely adorable pair were moving along at a really good clip too. She walked with us for only a few minutes before she was off again.
Saturday: Saturday is when we met Gorki. Gorki was a gorgeous Alaskan Husky who was sitting out in his front yard. Just above him was a sign that said. "Hi, My name is Gorki. I support your cause." He was very quiet and gentle, patiently accepting attention from all the walkers who stopped to say hello. While we were there the crowd around him got a bit big and I started to worry that this may not be the best situation to leave a dog in but looking up at the house, someone was standing at the window keeping an eye on Gorki and how he was doing. I smiled and waved at them. They nodded and waved back.
Sunday: A tiny little toddler who probably only recently started walking was writing in pink chalk on the sidewalk. As we came by his Dad encouraged him to give "high fives!" and the little man put his hand up to give us "high fives". It was very very cute.
