Happy 2nd Birthday Big Boy!
It’s official!
Knoah’s 2!
Early this morning, at 1:16am actually, he turned two! We are going to McDonald’s to a small family get together. I bought the stuff to make his cake and picked up his birthday present. I hope that the months of practicing to blow out candle’s pays off and he’ll blow out his candle!
Today, I am also declaring as the start of “Dwarfism Awareness Week”!
What is Dwarfism Awareness Week? Dwarfism Awareness is dedicated to educating the public and medical personnel about dwarfism in general. There are over 200 different forms of dwarfism or skeletal dysplasias. The most common non-lethal form of dwarfism is Achondroplasia. Achondroplasia is a short limbed dwarfism, which means your child will have an average height torso, above average head size and shorter legs and arms. While your child will look different than other children their age, they still need the same amount of love and support by their parent’s. Raising a child with dwarfism is not easy, but I know it will be the best decision you will ever make! It has been for me. Finding out your child has a form of dwarfism is not the worst thing in the world and there is a wonderful support system out there to help guide you through your journey!
If you have ever been told your unborn child has a form of dwarfism, then you one choice. FIGHT FOR YOUR CHILD’S LIFE! Not all forms of dwarfism are compatible with life, but giving your child that chance is worth it!
If you would like a copy of the Dwarfism Awareness photo to post on you blog, please leave a comment and I will edit the photo to include your blog address. I am asking you do about a post about what your experience has been raising a child with dwarfism. If you are a parent who has lost a child to a form of dwarfism, I am also asking that you do a post and explain you reason’s for giving your child a chance at life.
I have to write post about the CT, but I’ll do that later. Lots to do, so little time!!
So, for now…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KNOAH! You certainly have come a long way!

Happy Birthday Knoah! Trace says that being 2 isn’t too hard, just have to be cute enough to get out of whatever trouble you are getting into! It shouldn’t be too hard for Knoah, he is so darn cute anyway!
