What an amazing weekend

Brennyn and I had such a fun and food filled, informative weekend. I wish I had the right words to describe how thankful we are to the CHAMPS organization. I am so very happy that Brennyn is now a member of CHAMPS. This is the best organization, the friendliest people. They just make you feel welcome from the first second you contact them. It was so nice for Brennyn to be able to play with kids just like her. The older children had such patience for Brennyn. Brennyn looks older to some people (she is big for her age) and often they don't understand why she acts the way she does (she doesn't respect personal space for example, at all). She would ask these kids all about their hands/legs/arms/etc over and over again, but they didn't mind. They all hugged her goodbye today, and she talked about her "two new best friends Chris and Lucas" all the way home (both kids are teenagers, but she just loved them). Please, please if you are able to, try and support the War Amps program. These kids benefit so much from the CHAMP program. Brennyn is lucky in that she does not need prosthetics, but most of these children do. War Amps helps cover the cost of artificial limbs, etc for children in need. They do so much more as well, they give child amputees and their families all the courage and support they need.
