Buddy Walk recap
Happy Monday everyone
On Saturday I went to my first ever Buddy Walk. I looked forward to it all week and i am glad I went. I work up coughing on Friday morning and the first thing i thought was i might miss the walk I did not miss it and am glad I did not I went with a family that I had met from my special olympics young athletes days. The family has one son and two little girls, the little boy with DS I sat next to him and we sung songs on the way down. He is Sesame Streets biggest fan so when I sung the theme song and paused after " Can you tell me how to get. ' he new what to say it was soo cute. Once we arrived The weather was beautiful and there were lots of cute kids there. I met a little four year old who has battled cancer twice and is a savior . some people get really into buddy walk. There were people with signs and banners celebrating the abilities of their love one with Down Syndrome. The Family I went with had a sign that was right in front. It was a fun walk.
The only bad part was knowing that this great celebration was not for me, so selfish I know. There is no walk for CP and I wish there was. Camp Pals was there and they are going to have a camp pals in CA summer 2012 which sounds like fun except wait I do not have down syndrome. I signed the mailing list maybe my sisters , or me. would like to be a consular and have a good time at Camp Pals.
I really liked the Buddy Walk and I like to ask this of the organizers. Why not have a Buddy Walk for all disabilities or people with Cerebral Palsy lets get a walk together. I think its something everyone who has a child with Down Syndrome should go to. Everyone needs a buddy no matter how meny chromosome they have.

Learning to read part two My first independent book
Growing up my family had a lot of kids book lying around our house. Among with the Disney we had lots of step into reading books . Out of all of them the book I remember reading for the first time was Tiger is a Scaredy Cat.
Looking back I say it was a sad irony that I remember this book as I deal with fear. But that was my 'first independent book. I also have memories of reading this book in pre K.
Do you remember your first book What books are/were your kids favorite ,
