Maggie was born on August 29, 1996.  Maggie likes to sing the "ABCs" and "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and enjoys looking through books.  She loves to sing "No More Monkeys Jumping on the Bed"!  Maggie also likes legos and puzzles.

Maggie learned how to horse back ride this spring at Therapeutic Horse Back Riding on Johns Island, South Carolina.  Maggie loves the outdoors, playing with balls and on the swing set, and she recently learned to peddle her tricycle.  She insists on wearing her shoes on the wrong feet and generally has her own way of doing things.  It is not very often you find her in a dress!

Maggie loves her brother Joe and her teenage sister Jessie.  Jessie will be organizing volunteers for the Fun Walk and is excited to be helping Joe and Maggie.

Maggie's mom, Sissi Langford, is very involved in seeing to the kids education and is an active member of the MPS Society..  Even though Maggie does not speak very much, you often hear her say "Where's Mama?".

Maggie was diagnosed with MPS IIIA in June of 1999.
