“And though she be but little, she is fierce!”

Abigail is a fierce advocate for her sister Grace (who is 4 years old and has Down Syndrome) and any and all children and adults with special needs. She absolutely loves serving at GiGi’s when ever possible, especially if it means she can hold babies with Down Syndrome. Due to her love of and belief in the mission of Gigi’s the only thing she wanted for Christmas was to raise money to donate to GiGi’s Playhouse Sugar Land. Abigail’s joy of Christmas was realizing she had raised the $1,000 she was aiming for and on Christmas morning unwrapped the present which contained the donor balloon that will go on the wall at GiGi’s Playhouse (she had no idea the balloon had already been made).  Abigail held her own run-a-thon to raise money, which she faithfully completed running the 40 miles she had committed to run before Christmas, by squeezing 7 miles in on Christmas Eve with Kristi.  Abigail also sold items around the house and donated her own Christmas money. God is so good, she literally raised $1,000 almost to the dollar! We couldn’t be more grateful for the support of friends, family and our community.
