Hello my friends and family!

The Diaz family has been blessed by the many friends we have made in Fresno over the years, including the chance meeting of our neighbors and now good friends, the Llanos family,  We have seen Suzette, Lauren and Noah walking numerous times through the neighborhood and finally got to chat with them one evening.  Lauren is the same grade as Emiko and they instantly became BFFs.  Lauren's brother, Noah is such a cutie pie and very uplifting to meet.  Emiko is now his other big "sis" and loves to play with him too.

Talking with Noah's mother, Suzette, the Fresno Area Down Syndrome Society, fadss, has assisted with their family over the years in a truely generous ways.  Emiko wants to help fadss and the Llanos family continue with this great local support.  So both her and I have joined the team for Buddy Walk 2009! 

Our goal is simply to earn as much as possible for this wonderful organization!
