Thank you!
This blog lets you keep up with the W family. Our three boys are John and Noah who are college students and Ben, who is growing quickly and in high school. He has Down syndrome, Autism and Celiac disease, and sure makes life interesting.

Times Square NDSS VIdeo
Today is the Buddy Walk in New York. To kick off the walk and Down syndrome awareness month in October, they just showed a video on the Sony screen in Times Square with photos of individuals with Down Syndrome from all over the world. For the second straight year, Ben's photo was chosen to be included in the video. One day we will get to go and experience the New York Walk in person. But for now we are very grateful for Earthcam and especially the fact that this year they focused the camera directly on the Sony Screen. What a great way to see the video for the first time. I will post the full video as soon as it becomes available. But for now here is a screen shot I took from my computer, showing Ben on the big screen! Technology is so cool
Our own local Step Up for Down Syndrome walk will be held on October 5, 2013 in Lincoln. If anyone wants to support Ben, either in person by walking or by donating to our team Ben's Brigade, please visit our team page by clicking here. You can also see the photo of Ben that was shown in Times Square up close. Thank you to everyone who has already supported us!. Because of your generosity, Ben has earned all three of his fact poster that will be displayed along the Step Up Walk route, and becuase we are in the top ten for number of walkers, his photo will be included in the 2014 DSAF calendar. We are humbled by all the love an support we have been give by all our family, friends.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Love the picture of the boys at the top of the blog! All three so handsome :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I've already said it, but I love that picture of Ben in Time Square, and the one from last year too! Great shots of that little guy :)
