Cecily's Closet joined the Foundation for Developmental Disabilitie's Run, Walk, & Roll 5K/1 mile event on Saturday!  We had a great day as a family despite more than a few tantrums from everyone! Cecily, Noah and Cason earned medals - and they were ALL very proud to wear them ALL day!

This was Noah's 2nd 5K race - but his first time running! I was so proud of how hard he tried and how fast he ran - finishing in 33:39!  He ran most of the way - taking a few moments to walk and a few moments to take a breather while Daddy pushed the stroller with 2 flat tires! (Go Daddy!)

Cecily enjoyed all the dogs at the event - confirming in my mind that despite our crazy life she NEEDS a dog! She curled up with Max, a lovely golden retriever and had a good snuggle.  She also met a lovely labradoodle name Brownie who had quite a few pats from Cecily & Cason. We are so grateful when people take the time to share thier animals with our kids. Cecily adores animals and dogs are her all-time favorite!

Thank you to Emily and Connor (3rd place fundraiser!) for their support in the Team Cecily's Closet booth. 

We met some lovely people and have added a few more sewers to Team Cecily's Belly Band operation!  It's always great to see how many people in the community come together to support children with disabilities.

Onwards and upwards!

Special thank you to Major Chris and Tracey Collins. Chris is a Marine and former Blue Angel pilot who helped make Duncan and Cade's room possible. They were the number one donor to Connor and the whole 5K. Tracey has made it possible for Emily to meet other clients who have also generously given furniture and decorative items to Cecily's Closet.
Connor ran on behalf of his brother with special needs and raised funds for "Team Cecily" as he called it.
Emily knows the importance of funding the Foundation For Developmental Disabilities personally. THey help fund almost every major conference in San Diego for parents of children with disabilities...including (IEP) Involved Exceptional Parents' Day which Emily has been a part of for the last 5 years. Cecily's Closet has been an important part of that resource fair team for the last two years as well.
