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

I would like you to meet some of my Playhouse friends….. They are so awesome!


Please meet one of my new friends, Bristol 😀. She has a three-way tie for her favorite programs! They are LMNOP, GiGiFit, and one on one speech therapy with Miss Sarah! Bristol has two fur brothers! One dog named Griffin and one cat named Brisket, she loves them! Bristol loves ALL food. Fruit, banana pancakes, cheeseburgers, even sardines, to name a few 😀. Her nickname right now is “Baby B” is popular, her mom is sure there will be more as she grows older! ❤️. Bristol loves tossing the ball back and forth, giving her baby dolls kisses and popping bubbles (sounds like fun)! Bristol’s favorite place to go is the pool! She loves swimming 😀. When asked her favorite thing about GiGi’s, the answer is hanging out with her peers and meeting all the wonderful staff and volunteers, everyone is so nice (I agree so much)💕.


Thank you Bristol (and mom) for participating in my blog, I appreciate it so much….Hugs to you🤗
