Well That Was Fun!

Whew! Another successful month of blogging for Down Syndrome Awareness is completed!

Thank you to everyone who participated and made this blogging campaign what it is. Thank you to the repeat bloggers, the new bloggers, new parents of a baby with Down syndrome, pregnant bloggers who are awaiting the arrival of their baby with Down syndrome, parents who have older kids with Down syndrome, bloggers who are touched by Down syndrome in some other way. Thank you for keeping this going!

Thank you to Tricia for originally starting this and entrusting me with keeping it going!

Thank you to all of the people who participated in my "21 Days of Giveaways" and donated items! I am leaving the giveaways open until Nov 6 to give some more time for those that were posted at the end of the month. All of the giveaways are listed in this link ... feel free to enter any or all of them! So many great items to give away to the winners. I hope, through this giveaway bonanza, you found some new blogs, books, artists, companies who are all connected to Down syndrome in some way or the other.

As the host I feel bad that I haven't been able to get around to all the participating bloggers, but with about 170 that's a lot of blogs to visit! You all know how hard it can be just to find time to blog every day, let alone comment on all the other blogs! I read a lot more new-to-me blogs than I commented on though; it's so nice to 'meet' new bloggers.

Thanks everyone for sharing your stories. I hope you made some new blogging friends and had a fun time participating in this month-long marathon ... and hope to see you next year, same time, same place!
