Buddy Walk 2011

To celebrate MeiMei's first bday we participated in the NYC Annual Buddy Walk to raise awareness for individuals with Down Syndrome. We were so touched with the outpouring of support and those that spent the day with us. There was a group of awesome volunteers from OCM and CCP that cheered the walkers along. One of the main highlights was seeing MeiMei's picture on the big screen in Times Sq. She's such a rock star! Happy Birthday baby!

Happy Birthday my sweet girl!

One year ago, we had no idea what to expect or what was in store for our family. This year has proved to be a year where we were showered with blessing upon blessing. God is good and he gives wonderful gifts.

Makayla (MeiMei) has grown before our very eyes. She's feisty and sweet. She loves her brother and he brother adores her. She babbles, rolls and has the strongest legs! She used to be quite stingy with the smiles but now freely gives them out. She is soaking in the world and I can't wait to see what adventures the future holds. I know she will be used in a mighty way to break through barriers of all kinds. there are no limits!

I LOVE YOU!

Joey's First Day of School

Our little boy is all grown up. Today was his first day at University Settlement Head Start. We praise G that he got in. It's 5 days a week 8:30am to 5:30pm. He gets to socialize, play and learn and we get to rest! A win-win for all
