If you're new to the blog challenge please read this post to get a little background info on it and how it was started. I didn't come up with the idea, but this is the 3rd year that I'm hosting it.
If you don't want to read the above linked post, here is a quick summary of what 31 for 21 is all about:
- Down syndrome is 3 copies of the 21st chromosome (in medical terms it is Trisomy21, frequently shortened to T21).
- October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month
- There are 31 days in Oct
- Blog every day (31) in Oct to raise awareness about Down syndrome (T21)
- So ... 31 for 21 Blog Challenge
A couple of guidelines:
- You don't have to blog about Down syndrome every day; just blog every day about whatever you want
- You should mention, at least once, that you are participating in "31 for 21"
- You don't have to be a parent, or grandparent, of someone with Down syndrome to participate
- Grab the button and post somewhere on your blog or in a blog post
- Sign Mr Linky so other bloggers can see all the participants
- Meet new bloggers
- If you tweet, use #31for21

So excited to be a part of the 31-for-21 Blog Challenge for the third year in a row! My daughter Elyse has DS and will be turning two years old by the end of this writing feat. Looking forward to having a few friends join me this year, as well as my lovely sister-in-law Medrie who first got me involved with the challenge. Thanks Medrie, and thanks Big Blueberry Eyes for hosting. Happy Writing!:)

Hi Michelle,
I'm doing this challenge for the third time. I'm blogging for my almost two year old niece, Elyse, alongside my sister-in-law Adelle, who is participating on her own blog. Thanks so much for hosting -- we love 31-for-21.
I've been out of the blogging habit for almost a year but maybe this will draw me back in!
Looking forward to it!
Trying it this year!
Here we are again!!

This will be my first year and I'm excited! Just starting to figure this out, but I'll learn as I go!
This is my 2nd year participating, but this year is going a lot better.
