I can’t wait to share more with you next week!
Have a wonderful (and productive) weekend! (*And remember- if you’ve had a busy week, sometimes relaxing is the best thing you can do for yourself.)
#FamilyDay2018 #BeccaToldMeTo
While our American counterparts are celebrating Presidents’ Day, (most of) Canada is enjoying a long weekend, as we observe Family Day.
Whomever you call family (whether you have pets or not), I hope that you have a wonderful long weekend.
Before you go, I wish to bring your attention to a young Canadian woman who lost her battle to brain cancer Saturday night, at the age of 18. Her name is Becca Schofield.

I’m sure that you’ve heard that this year’s Gerber baby has Down syndrome. His name is Lucus Warren, and he is adorable! I think Gerber’s decision is smart; it would have been wonderful for Gerber to pioneer this initiative years ago, but as the above quote suggests, now is the second best time.
According to the CDC, approximately 6,000 babies are born with Down syndrome in the USA every year. It remains the most common chromosomal disorder (2017).
Disability is the largest minority group in the United States. (#TBT to this Forbes article from 2016.) Whether or not disabled people are a “recognized minority”, if this statement holds true on a global scale, imagine the extraordinary number of people such corporate initiatives could impact.
