Get your Socks Ready!

March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day.

The last seven years we have celebrated WDSD. This year will be no exception.

Want to celebrate with us? Just get some striped socks or silly socks and wear them on 3/21/2019 and show them to your friends and tell them how wonderful it is to know and love someone with Down Syndrome, like me (*sheepish grin*.)

Help us spread awareness, break stereotypes and make room for people with a little something extra in this world!

Here’s what I’ve been up to since Christmas- just normal 7 year old stuff.

I make breakfast now- all by myself! And, I eat it all by myself too. Since chemo, I’ve been kind of a princess, eating best when others feed me. I’m a big girl now and eat cereal all by myself! 




I’m an artist. 




I like to play basketball.


Lots of basketball.


Lots and lots of basketball.


I get dressed- mostly - all by myself.


I’m a good little sister and I love playing make up and hair stylist. 


I’m a good student, friend, cousin and daughter. I’m a good reader and sleeper.
I like to play piano and I still like to play with plastic food and I like to have tea parties.





I’m more alike than different- but that which makes me different makes me special. Just like you- 

Help me celebrate being a little different. 
March 21- wear some crazy socks and talk about them and why you’re wearing them. 

Thank you,
Katherine

  2. Ahhhhh....absolutely adorable! Katherine is beautiful...and I know for a fact how much your other two children love her. Katherine is well-loved, but from what I hear, she is completely lovable. Yole
