DSIA- Buddy Walk

Today was a great day.  I helped out at the Reece's Rainbow table during the Buddy Walk.  I loved being around so many people with children with that extra chromosome.  I learned a lot at the other booths and got some cool things I can check out.  I loved being a part of a great cause.
 

The highlight of my day was meeting Mackenzie Mickschl.  She has been home for three months and I met her parents at a pizza fundraiser for her and I fell in love with their family.  Hansina is a great mother and I hope our friendship will grow because I see God all in and around her and she is the friend I want to have.  Seeing her children was super special.  They also adopted John David before they adopted Mackenzie. Leah was also excited about meeting Mackenzie and seeing John David again.

We cant forget about Sofia who is the one who sparked Leah's interest in Reece's Rainbow who in turn spiked my interest.


We also were excited to see miss Chloe Bea who's waiting for her sister Olivia to  come home.

I also talked with Melissa Chellson about her upcoming fundraiser.  I cannot wait to help her with it.  Check out her blog at:  chellsonfamilyadventures.blogspot.com
