October is Down syndrome Awareness Month! Today we are celebrating our friend Brian!
October 14, 2015
Brian was born on St. Patrick’s Day in 2012. His Down syndrome diagnosis was a complete shock to us. One of the doctors recommended GiGi’s Playhouse as a resource. Several months later we heard they were opening a GiGi’s locally. After it opened, we regularly attended the 2 & Under program until Brian started school. Now we attend the pre-school programs and our older children beg us to go there. GiGi’s is a Community, a family. The bonds made at GiGi’s will last a lifetime.
