A wonderful writer and photographer, Crystal Schelle and Ron Agnir did a piece on Chance and our family in our local newspaper, The Journal. I was absolutely blown away by the scale and detail of the article and very grateful for the awareness that has been raised about Angelman Syndrome, disabilities in general, and Chance. We really want our community to embrace our son and his unique gifts, and so far Martinsburg has not disappointed! But even more so, we hope that seeing the bright smile and glimmering blue eyes of Chance helps to put a face on disability so that when you see someone in public with special needs you recognize that they are someone's son or daughter, brother or sister, aunt, uncle or cousin. Someone brought that baby into the world and loves them, but even more so, God loves them. We hope you enjoy the article as much as we did! Thank you so much Crystal and Ron, it was beautifully done!

What a wonderful article! I'm a little choked up now...
I loved this article, but my favorite picture was your toddler running in front of the jeep and Chance having "that look" on his face -- it looks like he's trying to gun down his brother! That made me laugh so hard! It's PERFECT!
