One of Niklas' favorite memories is enjoying the beach with his family. While his younger five siblings play in the water, he sits back and takes it all in: the beautiful smell of the ocean, the feeling of sand under his toes, the sounds of seagulls flying overhead, and the waves crashing onto the shore. Though he cannot see, Niklas has never lost his resolve or enjoyment of this sighted world.
Sarah attended FSDB from kindergarten through 12th grade. In high school, she took Culinary Arts as an elective. She wanted to be a culinary chef. In class, she learned about food prep, food science, and cooking techniques. She also discovered what she really loved: baking.
