Special Needs Spotlight – Meet Halle!

Special Needs Spotlight – Meet Halle!

For those who don’t know (we didn’t!), 3/21 happens to be Down Syndrome Awareness Day. 321… 3 copies of the 21st chromosome that make up Down Syndrome. In honor of this day, we want to highlight Halle, an incredible 5 year old girl born with Down syndrome who after several years at Stepping Stones will be attending KHS for Kindergarten next fall! For those who know Halle, she is a firecracker, whose spirit and energy could make anyone’s day. Thank you to her incredible mom, Caroline, for sharing their story, and for reminding us that what’s really surprising about being different sometimes are the similarities…the many ways in which we aren’t different at all.

You’ve probably been hearing a lot about CBD—aka Cannabidiol, or one of the chemical compounds found in the Cannabis Sativa plant with health benefits including reduced anxiety, depression, pain and insomnia—without the psychotropic effects associated with smoking marijuana. Recently, we heard about The Press Pause Project, a line of CBD rich products made for and by women. See what we learned!

Meet Stephanie (aka "Delilah")

Meet Stephanie (aka "Delilah")

If you are as obsessed with ABC’s new series, A Million Little Things, as we are, you may enjoy this fun fact – Stephanie Szostak (DELILAH!!) is a Westport Mom herself! Stephanie grew up in Paris, met her husband in college, and after years in Corporate America decided to pursue acting at age 29! She shares how the power of saying no may have landed her this latest role and how filming in Vancouver has impacted her family and teenage boys! Stephanie also admits she can throw a football with a tight spiral, swears by Lancome BiFacil Makeup Remover, and longs for an art-house movie theater locally. Stephanie is as impressive in real life as on screen, and we can’t wait for Season 2!
