Jojo is quickly approaching her 21st birthday in February 2021. ?
She loves art, modeling, cross-fit, equine therapy, cheerleading(of course, pre-pandemic). Virtual school was a big adjustment for our social butterfly, but Johanna is a trooper and has adapted well.
This school year she has been getting up with an alarm and getting ready for school independently-Friday logging in completely to her Teams class for Draw-2.
This school year, post-graduation-was supposed to be CBI-community-based instruction heavy. Since we are in the pandemic, the teacher is doing all she can to try to connect career, needs, wants, intros to job opportunities available, money. One class last week stuck in her beautiful mind-“remember mommy, eye contact and body language”. The picture shared is from a virtual roaring 20’s gala via Zoom with a friend.

Devon was born in the country of Panama. He’s been diagnosed with both Down syndrome and Autism. At 12 years old, he’s our little pipsqueak, a tiny guy who’s happy most of the time. Devon loves dancing to music, his favorite DVD’s – the Backyardigans, VeggieTales, and Baby Einstein – and getting horsey-back rides from his big sister in the ocean or pool. Our family has participated in the Buddy Walk/Step Up for Down Syndrome since he was 2 – which he typically enjoys while being pulled in his beloved little red wagon. Don and Jenn King.
