Birthday #7!

I cannot believe our baby girl is seven.  Seven.  She is such a joy!  The light that shines in her eyes is something that is rarely seen this side of heaven.
The girlie had such a fun time bowling w/ her friends.  We were so thankful for those who could be there to celebrate our girlie's life.

Opening presents


All of her friends signed this bowling pin as a gift from the bowling alley.

Daddy made another amazing cake!

All of the kids got medals for doing a great job bowling.



How'd I do?
We are so blessed that we have such amazing friends that have stuck with us and love our girl!  We love you, Baby Girl!!

Space Kidets




Space Kidets is a bounce house located in south Charlotte.  They donated an afternoon of free play to the Down syndrome Association of Greater Charlotte.  This meant that Emma got to go to bowling league in the morning and then to the bounce house in the afternoon.  What a day!  She had a blast!

Bowling League









The Char-Meck Therapeutic Recreation offered a six week bowling league on Saturday morning during the "cold" winter months this year.  We decided to sign Emma up to participate so that we could have something fun to do this "winter".  To say that she had fun would be a huge understatement.  She has been bowling a couple of times in the past w/ her class at school, but to see her so focused and having such a great time, was so nice for us to see.
