Special Olympics

Emma Sage went to cheer her friends on at our local Special Olympics on Thursday.

The weather was absolutely perfect.........and what an amazing evening it was.

Emma Sage was greated by the director of our local Special Olympics, and she fell madly in-love with her. She went off to get her, her own T-shirt and then lead me to the gentleman who is in charge of the 2 to 7 year old Speical Olympic program. I have him our address and guess what we got in the mail on Saturday....all of the paperwork we needed to get Emma Sage signed up to participate!

So

Abbie and Emma Sage at SO
Giving Abbie a big hug after her race. Abbie is one of Emma Sage's 'BESTEST' friends. I watch Abbie before and after school, so these two see each other daily and have really become the best of friends.

We are so excited to get started on Emma Sage's Speical Olympic journey.
