And it's such a sweet card that says, you know, thank you for being the very best mummy.

We are so lucky to have you as our mum.

And now Owen and Harvey, when they will give me a Mother's Day card on Sunday, they will sign the Mother's Day card from them and Henry, Jasper and Evan.

And so for me, it's about, you know, we are still mums when our babies die.

And for me, it's an opportunity to tell people I'm a mum of five boys.

And to speak aloud the baby's names.

I found after, you know, everybody, nobody wants to do the wrong thing, you know, but nobody knows what to do.

And so people often think, oh, we better not mention that.

the baby that died because... We don't know what to say.

We don't know what to say, so we won't mention the baby.

But what I would say is, as a mother whose babies have died, is there's nothing more beautiful than hearing your baby's name spoken aloud, hearing or seeing your baby's name written down.

We haven't forgotten that our babies have died.

To be reminded is actually very beautiful, even though...

you know, even though it's painful, even though we're sad, we still, you know, we still want our babies.

We still want our babies acknowledged, I guess.

And I think with Running for Premature Babies, it gives people an opportunity as well to, you know, to tell, to speak aloud the names and to say, I'm doing this

For my baby and little Enzo, you know, I, yeah.

We have a big goal in Sydney, can I just mention that, which is to raise $1 million, which will be the most ever raised by any charity in a marathon in Australia's history.

And we want to raise a million dollars this August.

So we'd love people to come and join us.
