Day 16 - Put me in coach!

Anna is a cheerleader for the Wilton Youth Football team and it is one of her favorite things to do. All her best friends were made cheering for the past few years. It is super cute to watch them cheer! Needless to say after her diagnosis her cheerleader season ended.

Shortly after we arrived home we were contacted by the coach of the Wilton Football team. He and the boys invited Anna to the game because they wanted to make Anna the honorary team captain. So excited to see her cheer buddies and get out of the house so we went. 

We met the team before the game. They invited us into the locker room where they all presented Anna with a ball signed by the entire team. They then asked Anna to bring the team on the field. I'm not going to lie, I was so proud of her and so touched that they would do this for her that I cried like a baby. 

Coach kept a tight eye on the players that day :)

Finally Anna got some time with her cheer pals. 

Keep fighting the fight Anna! We love you #821ForAnna
