Happy Birthday Emma!

October 16, 2003 you were born, 8 years ago today! What a miracle you were and what a rough first 4 years you and our family had. Never thought that we would ever adopt a child with Down Syndrome, or even 2 children with Down Syndrome, but because of you, we did! 2 less orphans in the world and you now have 2 sisters and 3 older brothers that love you dearly!

We finally got her out of the house in her kid cart with all of her equipment!
