We asked Gracelyn the question, "If you could do anything or go anywhere, what would it be?" Over and over again she told us that she wanted to go to a trampoline park called Get Air. It is such a funny request because she can't make it jumping 30 seconds without getting winded. The other problem was the fact that it is a public place and Grace hasn't been out in months. Too many little kids....too many germs. After a friend heard of her request she contacted Get Air and made special arrangements for Grace and her friends to go on a Monday before they opened. It made it so the place would have sat empty the entire weekend and all of Monday before we got there. I felt comfortable with that. Without telling her, we made arrangements for her cousins and friends to be able to meet us there this past Monday. Early in the morning we asked her what she wanted to do during the day, she said, "Something fun!" We asked what that would be, and of course she replied, "Go to Get Air!" We could finally say YES. We all went dressed in our Amazing Grace shirts and had the entire place to our selves. She had such a great time! I am so grateful for such wonderful people in the world who see how deserving this little girl is. This was something so small and normal to most people, but it is what she has wanted so bad, but couldn't do. Thank you to all who came with us and to the kind Manger of the Kaysville Get Air. Before we left he gave her her very own Get Air dodge ball. I doubt my kids will ever forget this!
