Here are a few things I know about 8-month-old Ryder.
He is initially a little suspicious of ladies with big cameras who come into his house.
He gets over that pretty quickly with some tickles from his daddy.
He loves his mommy so very much that tiny stars shoot out of his eyes when he sees her.
He has a very rare form of leukemia and has just begun a 6-week hospital stay, during which he will receive a bone marrow transplant.
He is brave and he is beautiful.
[If you would like to help Ryder's family in some way, money is being raised through this Ridin' for Ryder event. Thank you for considering it!]
