Wow! It has been almost 6 months from my last blog!  I am sorry and offer no excuses – we are all busy…
At 21, Becky amazes me daily! She took to DRIVING the riding lawn mower (small tractor) a couple days ago, and has been turning on her own alarm clock and GETTING up for activities she has planned! She continues to grow and develop, doing more than I expect. 
Her speaking abilities continue to improve as she continues to advocate for people with Down syndrome. You can still see her http://www.youtube.com/user/lostholman
Over the last year, she has continued to lose weight and is now under 100 lbs and looking awesome! She is very health conscious and is quick to tell you how to follow in her footsteps. She has lost 38 lbs total with a program called Isagenix, and is now a coach to her friends. She and her friends seem to be experiencing more alertness as well as better health 
with these products! Becky’s website is www.livinmydream.isagenix.com. Her friend’s great website www.newangela.com
We will be making a huge move to West Texas at the end of the summer. Our first order of business will be to attend the National Down Syndrome Conference in San Antonio. If you are there, look for us in the exhibit hall where we are signed up to have a booth called A New Page! There we plan to work at community outreach to adults with disabilities. Hopefully, we will be starting a new Down syndrome support group for the area and giving Becky new opportunities to give speeches.
I will try to do a better job keepin’ up with y’all!
Have a safe trip to TX!!
Have you decided on a church to worship at yet?
Becky: you look great! Especially on that lawn tractor! Go-go-go is right!
I am so glad to hear that you are already planing your involvement in your new community with the conference!
Take care and keep up with us back here every once in a while!
What lovely thoughts! I am an author and the proud father of a 38-year-old daughter with Down syndrome. I have written a novel in ebook form, A SPY AT HOME, which is available on Amazon. In this book I have a central character, Noah, who has Down. I would like to invite you to read this ebook, and I would be very interested in your thoughts about the story. I can be reached directly at rinald47@gmail.com.
Thank you for your blog and for sharing your child with Down syndrome.
