October is Down syndrome Awareness Month! Today we are celebrating our friend Hope!

Being Hope’s father is more enjoyable than words can describe. The Down syndrome community at GiGi’s is so supportive. They have offered us a place to go for advice, friendship, and most of all a family. Some of my best memories are the first time that my wife and I stopped by GiGi’s after finding out that we were going to have a daughter with Down syndrome and meeting Diane and also the first Gala. The Gala is just one of the everts that we look forward to yearly.
