She goes on to say that Landyn has a passion for LEGOs and has always wanted to go to LEGOLAND, tagging the LEGO company in hopes of getting their attention.

"After all he's been through in almost 3 months and not knowing if he would even make it, making sure his wish of going here is a MUST to fulfill," she wrote.

Four people have now been charged in connection to the shooting on Feb. 13, where a stray bullet entered the Davis' home, striking Landyn in the head.
