Wishing you all a wonderful new year full of love, smiles, good health, many blessings and miracles! Thank you always for your love, prayers and support! We are blessed to have you in our lives!
What a year 2013 was! Lets take a look back!
Madison turned Sweet 16 on February 4th, 2013! When she was diagnosed with SMA at 8 months of age, we never imagined that we would ever see this beautiful day!
We celebrated this miraculous milestone through out the year! You're only Sweet 16 once!
Her second celebration took place in Walt Disney World in late February! It was a very fun and magical trip! Madison couldn't wait to visit the new Fantasyland area and ride the new Ariel ride! She had been waiting 3 years for this! Her dream came true!
We had dinner at the new Be Our Guest restaurant for one magical birthday celebration! We sat in the West Wing. Our server remembered us from the year before when we had him as our server at the Kona Cafe in the Polynesian. We had the grey stuff...it was delicious! Madison got to meet the Beast after dinner and he was so gentle, held her hand and gave her a kiss!
Aunt Michelle ran the Disney Princess half marathon for Madison and all the kids with SMA, raising money again for Dr. Brian Kaspar's SMA Gene Therapy program at Nationwide Children's Hospital!
Cinderella's Royal Table was another restaurant Madison wanted to celebrate her birthday at. The Ariel that was there that night also remembered Madison from the year before! Did you know that Ariel is Madison's favorite princess? She just wants to be... "Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun Wanderin' free - wish I could be Part of that world".
