This past weekend, Grace & I went to our first 'annual' Moms & Kids weekend,
with 5 other moms & their preemies!! I've talked about this group before..
the Preemie Pen Pals group started in 2011 for me, of course right after Grace
was born. It's a Facebook group & the 50 or so women that are in the group have
all experienced Premature babies. it's a wonderful group of women who are
supportive of each other & our kiddos.
For the most part, none of us have met before.. but we have started these
GTG (get togethers) to get to know one another & have our kiddos
know each other too. This year was Grace & I's first.
There were 4 sets of Twins, with a total of 10 kids altogether!
Our kids played with each other, talked to each other, read stories
together..and just had FUN!
At the beach "lake".. Grace does not like the sand..nor the water :( unlike her mama.. 
Grace's personality shined through.. she loved the boys & tried holding this little guy's
hand the whole time.. :) (but most boys like their own personal space!)
All 10 kiddos!!
There are so many abilities within a disability.. my heart was full of love & awesomeness
as I got to finally put the face to the name of these beautiful children born 'too early'..
but Miracles just the same!!
Love you guys!
thanks for reading!
love,
pattie & gary, Grace & maxwell
