Roanoke Strollathon

Sunday had us driving 4 hours south to Roanoke for a Strollathon. My friend, Patrina chairs that one and it was the first time we've been able to attend. It was so much fun. We met some amazing, Christian families. That is one thing I always love to find, a mom who shares my faith AND has walked the Rett Syndrome path. Yesterday I visited with FIVE of those mama's! What a great time it was. Please be praying for our Strollathon. It is only 12 days away. Pray for sunshine(it rained last year), pray for the health of the girls so that many will be able to attend, and pray for all the MANY, MANY volunteers that we have to help us put together such an amazing day. Finally, pray for people to give generously. Rett Syndrome is something that can happen to any family. It is spontaneously occurring which means it is not a genetic disorder that is passed down from parent to child. There is so much hidden inside our girls, so much they want to share, they just can't do it. We need research to unlock the mystery of Rett Syndrome. Thank you for your prayers. And if you are able to come, we sure would love to see you.

Walking, walking, walking....Praise the Lord, she's walking!

A random shot....YES, she is asleep in the bathtub! No, we didn't leave her unattended.
