Meet James—our cheerful, outgoing, and endlessly affectionate Toddler of the Year! With a big smile, a friendly “hi,” and a wave for everyone he meets, James spreads joy wherever he goes. His curious nature keeps life exciting, and his happy-go-lucky personality has a way of turning strangers into instant fans. James is truly a ray of sunshine in toddler form!
What are James's favorite activities?James is always on the go and full of giggles! He loves playing with his big sisters, especially when they tickle and dance with him—his laughter is contagious! James adores petting his dog and cat and helping Mom in the kitchen by watching her “cooking show” and trying new foods. Whether he’s exploring outside, cruising in his play car, or zooming around with his favorite wheeled toys, James’ love for adventure and all things that go makes every day a fun ride!
How would $25,000 impact your family?Facing fertility challenges, we turned to treatments and IVF in hopes of growing our family. It was a long and emotional journey—but one we’d do all over again, because James is truly a dream come true. However, making that dream a reality came with a high financial cost. We are still paying off tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. A $25,000 award would help lift that burden and allow us to focus more on enjoying every moment with the little boy we worked so hard to have.
