Meeting Joshua and Family

Last night we drove up along Lake Ontario through a blizzard and rush-hour traffic to the town of Belleville to meet a little boy the same age as Jack who also has developmental delay. It took 2.5 hours, but it was totally worth it! Joshua's family welcomed us into their home and we finally got to see how similar Joshua and Jack were! It was really amazing. Besides having similar delays, ataxia, and the same type of seizures, they both have blonde hair, blue eyes, fair skin, and were both born in April 2006!

Here are some pictures from our time with Joshua and his family.


Jack and Joshua. I think I scared Joshua, barging in and taking a ton of pictures.

I really enjoyed meeting Joshua and his family, and I think Jack and Joshua were glad to meet each other too. Thanks again to Joshua's family for your hospitality!

So cute and funny! When you have angel buddies you just have to get used to them chewing on your toys! Josh tastes everyone's toys too. :-) I hope you guys are not so shell shocked form the diagnosis now and have time to process it all. Welcome to our Angelman family, if you are going to join the special needs community, our is the best! :-)
