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.

Shifting Perspectives


We went to the 'Shifting Perspectives' exhibit at the Dublin Art Museum last night and I am so glad we did!  It was a great display of beautiful photographs of individuals of all ages, races and walks of life doing ordinary, everyday things.  They all also happened to have Down syndrome.  If you live in Columbus you should go visit it this week since it is only here until Friday.
We also met a really nice new family there with an adorable little guy.  It is always nice to meet new people that have a different story but are walking in our shoes:)
Will needed some convincing that this whole dress up thing is a good idea.  So I gave him a KitKat and he was onboard!
