Give Baby! It feels good!

If you have followed my blog, you are well aware of the hard year my daughter Macy has had. I fear this is just the beginning for her. Yes, she is a happy baby and very much loved. But, she has to work so much harder for everything and she is not in the clear with her medical problems yet. So many of her little friends go through similar journeys and it is important to me that these children are given every opportunity for a full and happy life!

We have decided as a family to walk in the Street Meet 2011 sponsoring Ups and Downs (The Calgary Down Syndrome Association.) They are a great organization that does more for their members than any other support group type charity in Calgary. A few of the things they do...

-Wonder Years Conference - for parents to learn how to give their child with Down Syndrome the best chance at life!

-Cooking classes, Dances, Young Adult Conferences, Socials and much more for Teens and Adults with Down Syndrome.

-They offer a huge resource library with learning DVD's, Books, Toys etc. To help our children reach their full potental.

-They offer grants for parents to travel to larger conferences if they don't have the funds.

This is only a small portion of what they give back! They are a great organization and we are hoping to raise $2,500.00 this year to give them. To spondor Macy click here. Thanks Everyone!
