31 for 21 Day 25-Buddy Walk

Kara having a good time.
Three of the 4 children with Down syndrome enjoying the bouncy obstacle course. They could not do what typical kids could and wanted to play in the middle. That was not to be tolerated, they kicked us off.
Oh goodness, missed another day in the 31 day promise.

Our Buddy Walk was today, I look forward to it every year, always hoping the girls will have a marvelous time, this year it just did not meet our expectations.
I wrote more, but I think I will keep my mouth shut, we left early with 2 disappointed and crying girls, so much for a fun family day.
