Wow! Zachary Finally Walked Today!!
Oh my goodness...I can't believe it - I am on cloud 9 right now....
As many as you know, our youngest, Zachary, has Down Syndrome & has overcome many hurdles...well, today, he just added something else to his list.... at the age of 27 1/2 months, he walked 2 steps without any help at all....then he turned around, grinned & clapped his hands at all of the excitement that he caused
Just had to share my joy

WOOHOO!
A thousand hugs to him! That is terrific. DS kids usually have a difficult time overcoming gravity and walking is a big hurdle. I'm very happy for you all.The Free Spirit Saver who walks the path with Greebo.

I remember that moment my son has Autism and Cebral Palsy taking his first steps. I just balled, He was 7 years old, CONGRATS TO YOUR SON many more memories ahead.
