Our Spina Bifida Awareness this Month



For those of you who are my facebook friends, you may have noticed I've been posting daily pictures to facebook of my gals who rock spina bifida.  You  may have looked at my photos and said to yourself, "Why is she posting these?  There is nothing special about these photos!". 

And you are right!  That is the point!

Yes, my girls have spina bifida, and yes, sometimes life requires some creativity, but the point of my pictures is that most of our days probably look so much like "normal" lives.  We play, we get dirty, we learn, we eat, we go on vacation, we have little adventures, we swim, we bike ride, and the list goes on and on.  Sure, we do those "other" things like therapy and cathing, appointments and surgeries, and sure, the girls do many activities while zooming instead of walking, but the point is that they still do them.

Sometimes I feel that others focus on what we do differently, when the fact is, much of what we do is the same

Here are a few "boring" photos of us from this past year, just living our lives, because spina bifida doesn't mean life stops for us.
