| This is Shaylee |
Shaylee is our niece, born to Roger's youngest brother Kelly and his wife Michelle. She is most likely Ben and LuAnn's last grandchild (not counting the greats and great greats to come :). Their family is currently living in Korea, and only LuAnn has met Shaylee in person, but we all love her and look forward to meeting her when they get home in a couple of years. She's a sweetie - just look at that smile :)
Shaylee was born with Down Syndrome, and has already had to face challenges in her young life. Please click here to read a beautiful blog post about another little girl, Nella, and other beautiful kids who "possess the magic of the extra 21st chromosome"
If you like, you can donate in Shaylee's name to the NDSS (National Down Syndrome Society) " whose mission is to to be the national advocate for the value, acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome."
Last year I donated in honor of Logan Manning, son of my good friends Dave & Michelle Manning. This year I will donate in Shaylee's honor. Maybe you have someone who you would like to honor? Click here to donate. Every little bit helps.
