“It’s the Friends we meet along the way that help us appreciate the journey . . . . . .”

October 8, 2023

Brett would like you to meet some of his Playhouse friends….. They are so AWESOME!!

ACCEPTANCE . . . .

This month’s GiGi’s theme. October is all about awareness of Down syndrome. I think people should be accepting of each other and be kind ALL the time💙💛💕Thank you to GiGi’s for all you do!💕💙💛

Meet my friend Rosalie….Her favorite GiGi program is Literacy class with Ms. Tracie. Rosalie’s favorite food is grilled cheese sandwiches (I totally agree, I love them too)! Rosalie’s nickname from her mom is “baby-loo” and her siblings call her “stinker”, but not really! Rosalie likes to play with Barbies and she likes her iPad. She loves to play beauty salon and hospital with her Barbies. Her favorite thing about GiGi’s is how they care about everyone (so true)❤️. Rosalie is grateful to GiGi’s for their help, support, resources, and Ms Tracie😀💕.

Hugs from:
