Beauty Is...

Kayleigh is participating in a district-wide Reflections Project called "Beauty Is...". After researching what was required she knew in her heart what she wanted to do...



These are photos she took over the weekend and she is compiling them into a collage for "Beauty Is...". These children are children that we go to church with and they all have Down Syndrome. These children are truly what beautiful is all about! Their smiles light up a room, their giggles will make you giggle, and their love will just melt your heart.

We are very proud of Kayleigh for acting on what God has layed upon her heart to do. To show the world that beauty is truly in ALL children, regardless of disability.

And... what a better time for Kayleigh to choose these children for her project. October is National Down Syndrom Awareness Month. Many communities have their "Buddy Walk" scheduled during this month and these three families are participating in Forsyth County's next Saturday. Click on Buddy Walk to see how you can help!
