On November 18 2009 at 4:02 am William Alan Bartosch was joyfully welcomed into our family. He weighed in at 7 lbs 9 oz and 20 in long. We were stunned to discover that he was born with Trisomy 21, or Down syndrome. We love him unconditionally from the top of his toe-head to the tips of his toes. We know that this diagnosis will not define him. He is a happy, healthy little boy that just happens to have an extra chromosome.



Follow us on this unexpected and exciting journey as we learn how to live life Will's Way.

Therapy Fun

Heres a video of Will and Daddy doing some therapy with the ball.  Depending on Will's mood therapy can either be a little too much fun and not enough work, or miserable for everyone involved.  As you can see Will loves to bounce on the ball!


Working on the ball helps to strengthen Will's core.  It is amazing how many times I have been told that core strength will help Will with something.  Core strength is key to walking, talking, eating and most everything else!  So sometimes we play on the ball and sometimes we work on the ball but all of it is good!
