We love this place, and can not describe in enough detail the benefits it has given our daughter. A place where she gets to, ....well..... all of the above. A sense of normalcy and accomplishment in an otherwise persistently difficult world.

Ride on, dear daughter, we are so proud of your strength and determination. We love you so much!

Melissa would like to thank all those family and friends who have donated to Freedom Farm...this wonderful, volunteer run, life-changing, amazing place would not be able to continue without your help!!! And thank you to Grandma & Grandpa C, and Grandma ? & Lyle who never fail to be Melissa's #1 fans (next to Mommy & Daddy, of course)!!!

Oh....and Bethany rolled over this morning....but nobody saw it because we were all busy getting ready for the horse show and settling the sick kids before we left. But I guess she has a little more freedom of movement now, too!
