Sure wish we could go, too! Finances just won't allow it this year. We are asking a favor of someone attending, however. Our son's picture was one of the one's selected for this year's "More Alike Than Different" campaign. We've signed a consent form to allow them to use his image throughout the conference.

Could someone who's there take a picture of two if you see our son's picture made into a poster/banner or something? We would really appreciate it. He's the one who's being thrown up into the air at the local swimming pool.

Thanks in advance for someone helping us out with this. We really appreciate it. Here's the picture (well, here's our poster . . . but the photo is what you may see):


Thanks,
Kim

Marlene,
I've been to 2 other conferences since the one in MN ( K C and Anaheim). With Olivia entering 1st grade this year, I have lots of questions and just feel like I need some encouragement in general...so, I cannot wait to get down to Orlando!

Flying. Our flight gets in just before 1pm and then we are taking the Magical Express to the resort. We will probably just hang about since we can't even check in until 3!

I really wish we could be there. Say hi to Dr. Capone for me and ask him when his website is going up. Wink

Yay! I am so glad so many people are going! I am looking forward to meeting some of you in person for the first time and seeing old friends again! Hubby and I are going to the banquet. probably wearing casual skirt and t-shirt. Hubby will probably wear kahki's and polo. Capris and even dress shorts are probably fine. Missy, you went to the banquet in Boston so you know there is a range and Orlando will be so HOT everyone will probably be pretty casual. Can't wait. We are at the the Car. Beach Resort, too. So excited!
