First, let me start by saying Thanks for such a FUN, UPBEAT, ENCOURAGING thread! I'm so excited, I think tears just ran down my leg!:rotfl2
The last time we were in the "world" was April 2008. I got pregnant in 2009, had DD in 2010 and wanted to wait until she was a little older to take her. Our DS was 4 when we were last there and has been BEGGING to go back ever since.
We have never stayed on the property. This is our FIRST official family vacation, the 4 of us. Our family really needs it too! My DD, 2, has been recently diagnosed with ASD (autism spectrum disorder). After tears, and questions and appointments WE ALL need a break. What better way to break than DISNEY!!!
This is our CELEBRATION trip! We're celebrating DS's 8th birthday and DD has never been. DD responds well to BIG things, balloons,fireworks, music, shows, etc. Not well to strangers and the stroller is her safe haven. The DIS has enlightened me to the GAC card and I think this will help us TREMENDOUSLY!
She also has food allergies and from what I understand WDW will accomodate this too. It's like they welcomed us with all of our issues!
It makes me cry just thinking about it.
Then you sweet people start going on and on about POP, where we're staying, and I feel the love even more!
SO THANK you!!! You gave me hope and didn't even know!
OH and the BEST part of this WHOLE trip....the kids don't know yet!!! Shhhhh
I hope you ALL have a MAGICAL day!
