Arrgh! I knew this would happen! So little time and so much to do. Tomorrow is a full schedule of preparations and driving. The pressure is on. I'm getting more and more excited about attending the conference, and more and more worried about leaving the kids. I don't know if I'll be able to find a happy medium.
I took a look at the weather forecast for San Antonio yesterday. Are you ready for this?... sunny and 104. Yep. Temps in the 100's. Thank goodness for air conditioned conference rooms and halls :) The pool won't be out of the question, either.
Another task is to decide which topics to look into during all of the sessions offered. There are always so many topics and presenters, but only a few time slots to choose from! Last year we learned quite a bit about health issues that children with Down syndrome typically face, and about general development, and reading, and supporting your local non-profit network, and of course all about D.A.D.S! (Dads Appreciating Down Syndrome). David and another FCDSN member dad came home with such great information and enthusiasm that they started the local Rochester chapter of D.A.D.S.
A shameless plug for this fantastic group of Dads! You can learn more about them at www.dadsroc.com Don't you just love their name? Dads really do ROCK in Roc!
