GLEE!

On Saturday Break the Barriers had an event at their gym. The actress, Lauren Potter, from the hit show GLEE was stopping by to visit. Not only is she an actress but she also has Down Syndrome. She plays Becky who is part of the Cheerios on the show. It was pretty cool to get to meet her. She was cute and funny and a really big flirt! Along with her appearance, the performing teams all performed as well. So not only was it a chance to take Harlow to meet her first celebrity (outside of Disney characters) but I wanted her to be able to see another great BTB performance. She was in LOVE with the dancing and flipping. At one point she got to go out on the spring floor and dance with the big kids. She was scared stiff and didn't move an inch but when she came running back to me she kept telling me how she got to dance with the big kids. She sat so nice and still while they performed and clapped whenever they did something she liked. And the other highlight of her day was meeting Time-Out, the Fresno State mascot. She sat and talked to him, petted him and even sat in his lap giving him hugs. It was the cutest thing ever!
