Olivia van Maaren was born on March 30, 2007 to the proud parents of Paul and Courtney and big sister Hannah. She is now almost two years old and enjoys music, dancing, coloring, playing with the doll house, drinking her milk, cuddling, napping, going to church, and playing outside. She is very energetic and curious, and is well loved by all who know her. She has the cutest smile and knows how to charm anyone without even saying a word!

Olivia was diagnosed with Williams Syndrome in August of 2008 after her first echocardiogram. She has a mild aortic stenosis and one functioning kidney. She is benefiting from speech therapy and playgroups through the Early Intervention program. We feel very fortunate that she is learning and growing so much and has a wonderful, loving big sister to look up to. Thanks for reading about Olivia!
