Charlie Sumner

Santa’s happy helper for our Holiday issue in Charlie Sumner, age 5. He is “big brother” to his twin siblings, Jonas and Cora, age 3. Charlie has been diagnosed with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and cerebral palsy. He is starting to find his voice by using his Tobii device and he loves to ride Pedro (his horse during hippotherapy session) as well as read everything he can get his hands on. In addition, he loves swaying back and forth to music that Grooves (us, too!). When he grows up, he would love to do something with music; write songs and make people happy!
