Zoe notices people. Really notices them. When her mama was having a hard day and started crying, Zoe didn't look away — she leaned in. "Don't be sad mama, I want you to be happy," she said, then quietly kissed her shoulder and her hand. When the tears came back, she didn't panic. She just asked, "Do you want to eat some bubbles?" and then decided: "Well, you need to be happy." She's three years old and she already knows how to hold someone's heart.
What are Zoe's favorite things to do?Zoe lives for the outdoors — sand, dirt, water, it doesn't matter, she's in it. Any music that plays becomes her cue to dance, whether it's a full performance or just a shimmy from her high chair. At home she independently sets up her record player and loses herself in play. She doesn't wait to be told what to do — she already knows. Behind that contagious giggle is a mind that is always observing, absorbing, and figuring everything out.
What would your family do with $25,000?When Zoe's pediatrician suggested waiting on speech therapy, we didn't wait. When the covered provider wasn't moving the needle, we switched to a private out of pocket therapist — because Zoe's needs don't have a price tag. We worked with her at home every single day. The $25,000 goes into her education fund, because a girl like Zoe doesn't just deserve a chance — she deserves every chance. She has never stopped showing up for us, so we will never stop showing up for her.
