MDA so much appreciates your generous donation!
As you may know, I took Matthew with me to jail and got this mug shot.
Matthew was thrilled to ring the money bell when someone made a donation for us to get out of jail.  Every time the bell rang, the crown of 87 people would all cheer.  He enjoyed the cheering so much that he ran up to ring the bell-  only to say he was just testing it. 

Amazing, at 3 years old, how he can manipulate an entire crowd!
Matthew learned a very important lesson at this event.  That if someone has a disability and looks different, they may be just the same as you and me on the inside.


Matt was afraid of Amber, age 12 (has had MD since she was 5) at first because she looked different.  As you can see from the picture, by the end of our short 2 hour stay, Matthew was sitting in Amber’s lap, giving her hugs and driving her wheel chair.  He will never forget how he made her smile and mentions this often.


Thanks again for donating to the MDA, this meant so much to me.
Take care and lots of love,
