Here at March of Dimes Canada we just celebrated our 3rd LIFE graduation on Friday December 13. We invited our friends and family and instructors to celebrate another successful ten week session. We shared pictures and stories about all the things we have done like biking, T-ball, climbing the challenge tower, workshops, transit training, conductive education, visiting Windreach Farm, the Royal Winter Fair, Ripley’s Aquarium and so much more!

  

Jenny shared a poem about friendship and then the LIFE participants received their certificates and Outward Bound stickers and badges. We were all thrilled as we watched Usman and Jess get out of their chairs and walk to the front of the room to receive their certificates. It was clear to see how close our group has become when everyone cheered Jess and Usman on as they walked. Many laughs were shared as Indira reminded us of stories about each participant and then Bernardo performed a song we worked on about the LIFE program.

  

During the program we talked a lot about SMART Goals and one of Princess’ goals was to dance more. It is safe to say she has accomplished this goal and was the first to get the dance floor started. We spent the rest of graduation singing, dancing, telling stories and taking pictures. It was a wonderful day and we cannot wait to start the next LIFE session in the new year!
