Yesterday I received a phone call from my friend Carmen. Carmen is mom to Jaemen, who happens to have Down syndrome ... they live in Colorado. I met Carmen through a Down syndrome forum, as crazy as that sounds. She has become one of my best friends ... we have that "Down syndrome connection".
Carmen has a friend, Jennifer, who I loosely know from Reece's Rainbow. Jennifer is mom to Cadence, who also happens to have Down syndrome. Cadence celebrated a birthday this past weekend and in lieu of gifts, Jennifer asked that donations be made to our family to help bring Addison home. How cool is that?! I got a bit teary eyed and had the chills after Carmen told me this yesterday ... I am just in awe of people's generosity!
So to Jennifer and Cadence, thank you so much for your support! Maybe Cadence could take Addison to prom some day? ;)
