Our Down Syndrome Family

today we had overlapping therapists; ot and pt were here for about 15 minutes at the same time. these ladies are my friends! i love them....they are like family to me! we have been so blessed with the BEST therapists ever! i am so thankful that God put these ladies into our lives through our precious wyatt. i look forward to their visits every week!

and as i write this, i just received one of the most precious gifts (except for the gift of our Lord and Savior!) that i have ever received. in the mail was a canvas portrait of my current profile pic of wyatt and brennan kissing (wyatt's first kiss!). we met cassie and her precious girls as we were driving out to texas for our vacation. we'd been facebook friends, but had never met in real life. she caught this perfect pic of the babies kissing with her iphone, and i've been using it for my profile pic. it is just so precious! i am overwhelmed, and almost in tears, at cassie's thoughtfulness. around the perimeter of the canvas, where it wraps around the wood, are the words: "friends linked by an extra twenty first chromosome brennan + wyatt". i will always treasure this.....and ethan said they will never be able to top this gift! =)

this just ties into the theme of this post....our ds family. i have been blessed with such an amazing group of fb and local friends who i would never have met had God not given us precious wyatt! therapists, doctors, nurses, specialists who give of their talents and time to work with our special kids. we truly are blessed beyond measure!
