Queen on Her Throne


A Bumbo Baby seat and a royal cloak turn sweet little Polly into the queen of her foster mom's bicycle cart... and of our hearts!

We're thrilled with Polly's progress... when she arrived, she wasn't quite 11 pounds at 1 year and 1 month of age. She couldn't sit up, roll over, or meet any of her other developmental milestones. She needed surgery to correct her heart condition, and she has Down's Syndrome. In the last few months, she's gained a lot of weight, and her trunk muscles are getting stronger and stronger thanks to plenty of physical therapy, the hard work of her foster mom, and the Bumbo seat!

We're thankful Polly is in our lives, and we're expectantly waiting for her adoptive family to find her! We know Polly will have lifelong challenges that she faces, but we trust that there's a family for her out there! We can't wait for the day!
