As we come to the last days of Down Syndrome Awareness month and us getting closer to having our baby girl, I want to reflect on this amazing little boy and how lucky we are and how lucky his sister will be to have him in her life! Having a child with Down Syndrome softens my heart, and allows me to accept people as they are, regardless of their abilities. Raising a child with Down Syndrome is wonderful and amazing! It makes you realize that a mothers love is not based on a child's ability, but on your own ability to accept and give. Having a child with special needs can sometimes be hard, but sometimes it's not. And after you realize this, then you realize this is true for all children. You realize that children with special needs are not beings that walk around suffering from illness, but special people that learn and do things differently, just like all of usI love celebrating differences and my amazing little boy who will soon be the BEST BIG brother ever!!
