Did we just become best friends? Yup! Okay now that we’ve got that out the way, let me introduce myself, my family and the little boy who changed my world. I’m Melissa and I’m a busy mama to a bunch of boys. Okay, maybe just 3 but some days it feels like a whole football team. Benjamin is our oldest, he is 12 and loves all things sports, but baseball has his heart. You’ll often find us at his baseball tournaments on the weekend.Jack is our middle guy. He is 5 years old, will probably be the first person to say hi to you in a room and won’t stop until you’re his new bestie. Jack also happens to have Down syndrome, and as his big brother always says “I’m happy he does. He’s blessed my life.”Samuel is our youngest at 2 years old. He loves trucks, dinosaurs and his brothers. I’m married to my high school sweetheart and the best teammate around, Jake. We have two dogs, Timber and Shelby who love nothing more than to follow their boys around all day.Whether we meet in person, or on the internet just know you have a friend in the Betts family. Jack wouldn’t have it any other way.
