Riccardo

From the moment Riccardo was born, he has blown us away in every aspect of existence. His facial expressions tell us everything we need to know. He makes us laugh with a simple bit of eye contact, but also lets us know exactly what he wants and needs. Now that he walks and talks, he shines in many ways. His athleticism is shown with how well he kicks a soccer ball and throws a baseball. His intelligence is evident as he speaks more than 30 words as a 16 month old. He’s truly a joy to be around.

Singing and dancing. Playing piano. Reading books. Making people laugh. Eating ice cream. Running. Playing Soccer. The splash pad. Hide and Seek. Petting dogs. Climbing things. Imitating mommy and daddy. Meeting babies.

$25,000 would be life changing. We would be able to buy the things we need around the house to further support Riccardo’s fullest potential (stair gates, equipment for sports, a swing set, second car seat). We would start a savings account for Riccardo so we can plan for a bright future for him when he becomes old enough to handle his own money. We are pregnant and due in November, so making sure we have the financial stability to raise both these boys together would be life changing.
