Some of you may have already seen this, but I wanted to post this video on YouTube from the NFED Talent Show last week in Virginia. Keep in mind that about 300 people were at this event and I don't think there were any dry eyes in the room when she was done. This is Ally, the daughter of our dear friends the Kelsos from Virginia, singing Zippity Doo Dah (Ally and her sister Morgan are "adoptive" daughters to us). Ally is 4 1/2 years old and is almost completely blind. She has EEC Syndrome just like Tyler and Grant. She has the most amazing personality, is so sweet, and is truly an inspiration to all of us. We love her and her family and feel blessed that we've met them through the NFED. This year we were fortunate enough to be able to spend about 8 days with them touring Washington DC and then attending the conference. Having children with the same syndrome has created a special bond between us and our friendship just continues to grow. Thanks for your inspiration, Ally.
