Get Loud about being Proud!

My child with DS, first name and age: Donna Marie, 5 year old.

Any other kids and their ages: Christopher, 4 years old.

Quickie medical wrap sheet: Bilateral ear tubes, adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy at age 2. ASD repaired via cardiac cath using an Amplatzer device at age 4.

Recent goals attained? Finally started to walk independently at age 3.5. Still not talking.

Any fun stories that you'd like to share? Donna Marie loves to march around the house with her purse like a real little lady. She also enjoys watching Yo Gabba Gabba. (Watching TV is a new interest for her.) Her little brother adores her and copies everything she does...including stealing her purse and also marching around the house with it just like she does. (I have heard him say, "Yeah, I know it's a bit too girly for me, but I like to share.") While Christopher has deep love and admiration for his big sister, Donna Marie just barely tolerates her little brother ;)

Love,
Laura
