It's time for the annual Step Up for Down Syndrome walk. This year it is Sunday Sept 25, and it will once again be held in City Park. If you check out the slide show from last years walk you will see some familiar faces there!
We'd love for you to walk with us this year. Our team name is Bear's Buddies again, and I will be sending out an email with registration info soon! If you get tired of waiting for my email, you can find our team and register through the link above.
You know I will be there in spirit!
ReplyDeleteI am with Sandy. Cyber buddies all the way. . . walking there in spirit--me and the Bear :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm still debating on what we are going to do but I'll keep you posted!
ReplyDeleteSo Jax will be 6 this year, and me and him have never been to a Buddy Walk! I know, smack me. The first few years he was just too sick. A couple times he was in the hospital, daddy and the boys went, and last year we were gone bringing Arina home. I think we'll miss this year too because we are moving. I can only hope the one in Cali is later in the fall so we can finally go to one!
ReplyDeleteWish I lived closer to Colorado... I would bring my whole family out for the walk ... braces and all!! I came across your blog because as a mother of a child with physical and learning disabilities… I am always interested in hearing the stories of others and how they have coped with raising a ‘special’ child. I recently saw a film called ‘Dakota’s Pride’ which showed the MANY wonderful blessings children with Down syndrome bring to this world. I can’t even express to you how moved I was by this film! I was amazed by all of their accomplishments… one young man with Down syndrome even graduated from college, drives his own car and is an advocate for other adults with Down syndrome! I know you get to experience these many wonders on a daily basis, but I thought I would share the following link for the video. http://www.dakotaspride.com/ God bless!
