October and Awareness ~ My spin....

October brings "big stuff" in the Kulp home.  Not only is it the month to bring awareness to Spina Bifida for our Shea, but also Down Syndrome for Simon.  Poor Danielle... I'm not sure if Alfi's syndrome has a "month" you are just so unique!  Mommy will have to look into that.  Emily as for you - you are in your "terrific and terrible twos" so every single second we are all very well aware of you my love...!

With it being SB and DS awareness month the usual tradition is to tell stories of the wonderful goals my children are meeting, revel in the challenges we have overcome, post photos of your newest brave feat or shiny new equipment that is helping you to live life....

However, I am going to break tradition for now.  My dear Simon and Shea, this post is not about you... sorry lovies.  In honor of october and awareness, we look beyond our home... we look toward your roots, your history.

I will simply post this link today. http://reecesrainbow.org/?s=spina+bifida

For today, these are just a very very small sampling of beautiful, wonderfully made children, who also happen to have spina bifida, who happen to be alone is this world, who happen to need a family to love them and help them and hold them... and BE BLESSED BY THEM....

That is all my friends.... please look, please pray, please be aware of them, please do something for them...

something...

prayer....

donate....

adopt....

yes, I am pleading here...
