25 September

Today.

The Buddy Walk. (It usually rains, but today we were ROASTING!)

The Buddy Walk® was established in 1995 by the National Down Syndrome Society to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October and to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome.

Today.

Bre walked with her two best friends from school and their families. Today, Bre walked with her teachers and her Mom and brother. Today, Bre's friend E (6 years old) told the face painter to paint not an animal , but "For Bre" on her face. Today, even one of Trevor's best friends and his family came. Today, was just greater than I ever expected it would be. The people of our community have just come out of the woodwork for this special little girl. I am just moved beyond words. There are no words.
On the day she was born, I wondered if my little girl would ever have friends, and look....look where she is now:)

She receives love because she shows love Life is now how much money you have or how smart you are but how you treat others and Bre has mastered that talent
Love you
